The ToCharArray method of the string class converts a string to a
character array. The following code snippet creates a string into a char array.
string sentence = "Mahesh
Chand";
char[] charArr = sentence.ToCharArray();
foreach (char ch in charArr)
{
Console.WriteLine(ch);
}
Here is a complete sample code:
public void
StringToCharArray()
{
// Convert string to char array
string sentence = "Mahesh
Chand";
char[] charArr = sentence.ToCharArray();
foreach (char ch in charArr)
{
Console.WriteLine(ch);
}
// Convert char array to string
char[] chars = new char[10];
chars[0]
= 'M';
chars[1]
= 'a';
chars[2]
= 'h';
chars[3]
= 'e';
chars[4]
= 's';
chars[5]
= 'h';
string charsStr = new string(chars);
string
charsStr2 = new string(new char[]
{'T','h','i','s',' ','i','s',' ','a',' ','s','t','r','i','n','g'});
Console.WriteLine("Chars
to string: {0}", charsStr);
Console.WriteLine("Chars
to string: {0}", charsStr2);
}
The output looks like the following:
