Array of objects – C Sharp Example

Array of objects C# example – An array of user defined class objects can also be created the same way as we create array of built-in type.

For example, here is an array for 5 int type.

int [] numbers = new int[5];

Similarly, an Array of 5 objects of the class Car can be created as below.

Car[] obj = new Car[5];

In an array of objects, all the objects will be of same class.

We have created array for 5 Car objects in which we can store 5 objects of Car class.

Now for each 0 to 4 slot, we can create Car object as below.

obj[0] = new Car();

obj[1] = new Car();

obj[2] = new Car();

obj[3] = new Car();

obj[4] = new Car();

Array of objects C# example – Source code

This program creates an array of 5 objects of class Car. Set the name of each car. Using for loop, it will retrieve each array elements and display the names of the
cars on console.

     /*
 * Array of objects in C# example program
 */

    class Car
    {

        private String name;

        public String getName()
        {
            return name;
        }

        public void setName(String name)
        {
            this.name = name;
        }
    }

    /*
 * Test array of objects
 */

    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            // Create an array of 5 student objects.
		Car[] obj = new Car[5];
 
		// Create first car object
		obj[0] = new Car();
		// Set car names
		obj[0].setName("Maruti");
 
		obj[1] = new Car();
		obj[1].setName("Honda");
 
		obj[2] = new Car();
		obj[2].setName("Ford");
 
		obj[3] = new Car();
		obj[3].setName("Hundai");
 
		obj[4] = new Car();
		obj[4].setName("Nissan");
 
		// Display all cars
 
	     for (int i = 0; i < 5; ++i) 
             {
              Console.WriteLine("Car : " + obj[i].getName());
		
            }
        }
    }

Output
Car : Maruti
Car : Honda
Car : Ford
Car : Hundai
Car : Nissan
