Hi All,

What would be the best way to iterate through a multidimensional array in c#.

I have defined my array as

C#

new string[,,] { { { "A", "B", "C" }, { "D", "E", "F" } } }

But I am having trouble getting my head around the process of a foreach loop.

I want to be able to pass this array as a variable then assign each value as it iterates through the array.

Thanks in advance.

You can iterate through the array like this,

C#

string[,,] arr = new string[,,] { { { "A", "B", "C" }, { "D", "E", "F" } } };

           foreach(string k in arr)
           {
               System.Console.Write("{0} ", k);
           }

But MSDN recommends to use nested for loops with multidimensional arrays

"with multidimensional arrays, using a nested for loop gives you more control over the array elements."
