    copied!<p>I have been trying to find out if there is a better way to initialize the string array I am using in this code snippet. I was wondering if there was a function, or perhaps some use of <code>new</code> that would make the calling and assignment of all the empty strings in the code unnecessary. So I can initialize them at the same time I create the array.</p> <pre><code> foreach (var unit in unitList) { //Sort units by each army string unitName = unit.UnitName; armyUnits.Add(unitName, unit); //Sort unit properties by unit List&lt;string&gt; properites = new List&lt;string&gt;(); string composition =""; string weaponSkill =""; string ballisticSkill =""; string strength =""; string initiative =""; string toughness =""; string wounds =""; string attacks =""; string leadership =""; string savingThrow =""; string specialRules =""; string dedicatedTransport =""; string options =""; string armour =""; string weapons =""; properites.AddRange(new string[15]{ composition = unit.Composition, weaponSkill = unit.WeaponSkill, ballisticSkill = unit.BallisticSkill, strength = unit.Strength, initiative = unit.Initiative, toughness = unit.Toughness, wounds = unit.Wounds, attacks = unit.Attacks, leadership = unit.Leadership, savingThrow = unit.SaveThrow, specialRules = unit.SpecialRules, dedicatedTransport = unit.DedicatedTransport, options = unit.Options, armour = unit.Armour, weapons = unit.Weapons }); } </code></pre> <p>edit: So it looks like you can do <code>new String(unit.Composition.ToCharArray())</code> inside the array. I don't think that is any more readable or quicker to write though.</p> <pre><code> properites.AddRange(new string[1]{ new String(unit.Composition.ToCharArray())} </code></pre>
