How to create 6-ValueTuple in C#?
In C#, a 6-ValueTuple or sextuple is a value type tuple which contains six elements. You can create a 6-ValueTuple using two different ways:
- Using ValueTuple <T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6>(T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6) Constructor
- Using Create <T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6>(T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6) Method
Using ValueTuple <T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6>(T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6) Constructor
You can create a 6-ValueTuple by using ValueTuple <T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6>(T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6) constructor. It initializes a new instance of the ValueTuple <T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6> struct. But when you create a value tuple using this constructor, then you have to specify the type of the element stored in the value tuple.
Syntax:
public ValueTuple (T1 item1, T2 item2, T3 item3, T4 item4, T5 item5, T6 item6);
Parameters:
- item1: It is the value of the first value tuple component.
- item2: It is the value of the second value tuple component.
- item3: It is the value of the third value tuple component.
- item4: It is the value of the fourth value tuple component.
- item5: It is the value of the fifth value tuple component.
- item6: It is the value of the sixth value tuple component.
Example:
// C# program to create a 6-ValueTuple // using value tuple constructor using System; class GFG { // Main method static public void Main() { // Creating a value tuple with six elements // Using ValueTuple<T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, // T6>(T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6) constructor ValueTuple< string , string , string , string , string , string > MyTpl = new ValueTuple< string , string , string , string , string , string >( "Dog" , "Cat" , "Cow" , "Pig" , "Hen" , "Bird" ); Console.WriteLine( "Component 1: " + MyTpl.Item1); Console.WriteLine( "Component 2: " + MyTpl.Item2); Console.WriteLine( "Component 3: " + MyTpl.Item3); Console.WriteLine( "Component 4: " + MyTpl.Item4); Console.WriteLine( "Component 5: " + MyTpl.Item5); Console.WriteLine( "Component 6: " + MyTpl.Item6); } } |
Component 1: Dog Component 2: Cat Component 3: Cow Component 4: Pig Component 5: Hen Component 6: Bird
Using Create <T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6>(T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6) Method
You can also create a 6-ValueTuple or a value tuple which holds 6-elements with the help of Create <T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6>(T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6) method. When you use this method, then there is no need to specify the type of the elements stored in the value tuple.
Syntax:
public static ValueTuple<T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6> Create<T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6> (T1 item1, T2 item2, T3 item3, T4 item4, T5 item5, T6 item6);
Type Parameters:
- T1: It is the type of the value tuple’s first component.
- T2: It is the type of the value tuple’s second component.
- T3: It is the type of the value tuple’s third component.
- T4: It is the type of the value tuple’s fourth component.
- T5: It is the type of the value tuple’s fifth component.
- T6: It is the type of the value tuple’s sixth component.
Parameters:
- item1: It is the value of the value tuple’s first component.
- item2: It is the value of the value tuple’s second component.
- item3: It is the value of the value tuple’s third component.
- item4: It is the value of the value tuple’s fourth component.
- item5: It is the value of the value tuple’s fifth component.
- item6: It is the value of the value tuple’s sixth component.
Returns: This method returns a value tuple with six elements.
Example:
// C# program to create a 6-ValueTuple // using Create<T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, // T6>(T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6) Method using System; class GFG { // Main method static public void Main() { // Creating a value tuple with six elements // Using Create<T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, // T6>(T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6) method var MyTple = ValueTuple.Create(12, 34, 56, 45, 67, 89); Console.WriteLine( "Component 1: " + MyTple.Item1); Console.WriteLine( "Component 2: " + MyTple.Item2); Console.WriteLine( "Component 3: " + MyTple.Item3); Console.WriteLine( "Component 4: " + MyTple.Item4); Console.WriteLine( "Component 5: " + MyTple.Item5); Console.WriteLine( "Component 6: " + MyTple.Item6); } } |
Component 1: 12 Component 2: 34 Component 3: 56 Component 4: 45 Component 5: 67 Component 6: 89
