✅ Tuples in classes

using System.Collections.Specialized;

class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        string[] input = Console.ReadLine().Split(' ');
        Player player = new Player(input[0], Int32.Parse(input[1]));
    }
    class Player
    {
        public string _playerName;
        public int playerID;
        public Player(string playerName,int playerIdentifier)
        {
            _playerName = playerName;
            playerID = playerIdentifier;
            Tuple<string, int> playerInfo = new Tuple<string, int>(_playerName,playerID);
        }
    }
}

This may be a beginner question but how do i acces the playerInfo for each Player instance created?

✞Tony2/10/2023

how can i put that tuple into a list so whenever i need a player name and his id i can get it from that list

Playboi172/10/2023

There’s a lot of better options here than using a tuple.

Playboi172/10/2023

What would you be using to access the player?

Playboi172/10/2023

It’s name, id, what?

✞Tony2/10/2023

is not for a game is just for me learning c# and yes his name and his id

✞Tony2/10/2023

i want both of them stored somewhere and when i check all the instances of Player Class i can see all of them grouped name with id

Playboi172/10/2023

All you need is a List<Player> Players. Then do Players.FirstOrDefault(player => player.id == id)

Playboi172/10/2023

I’m on mobile

✞Tony2/10/2023

Uh i don't think i know what that is

✞Tony2/10/2023

and how to use it

Playboi172/10/2023

It’s C#s query language

Playboi172/10/2023

It’s basically saying return the first player in this list where the players id matches my provided id

Playboi172/10/2023

If no player in the list matches the id, return default (null)

✞Tony2/10/2023

so when i do List<Player> Players; and i iterate trough all of them i will get all the instances?

Playboi172/10/2023

Yes

✞Tony2/10/2023

Damn c# is nice

Playboi172/10/2023

If you put all the players in the list

Playboi172/10/2023

It is very nice

✞Tony2/10/2023

thanks man

Playboi172/10/2023

No problem

thinker2272/10/2023

Btw, you should always use (string, int) over Tuple<string, int>

✞Tony2/10/2023

uh but if i want to iterate over them with a foreach() how do i use that like with a foreach(string player in Players) or how

thinker2272/10/2023

(string, int) is a shorthand for ValueTuple<string, int>, which is a better and more lightweight option to Tuple<string, int>

✞Tony2/10/2023

thanks i will keep that in mind

thinker2272/10/2023

Iterate over a tuple?

✞Tony2/10/2023

    class Player
    {
        public string _playerName;
        public int playerID;
        public Player(string playerName,int playerIdentifier)
        {
            _playerName = playerName;
            playerID = playerIdentifier;
            List<Player> Players;
        }
    }

✞Tony2/10/2023

how do i iterate over Players

thinker2272/10/2023

foreach (Player player in Players) { ... }

✞Tony2/10/2023

oh ok yeah i was using foreach (Player in Players) { ... }

thinker2272/10/2023

you have to specify the type, yeah
