Generating an array of letters in the alphabet

Question

Is there an easy way to generate an array containing the letters of the alphabet in C#? It\'s not too hard to do it by hand, but I was wondering if there was a built in way

Answer 1

4 ways get English alphabet in Console:

public void ShowEnglishAlphabet()
{
    var firstLetter = 'a';
    var endLetter = 'z';
    for (var letter = firstLetter; letter <= endLetter; letter++)
    {
        Console.WriteLine($"{letter}-{letter.ToString().ToUpper()}");
    }
}

public void ShowEnglishAlphabetFromUnicodeTableDecNumber()
{
    var firstLetter = 97;
    var endLetter = 122;
    for (var letterNumberUnicodeTable = firstLetter; 
    letterNumberUnicodeTable <= endLetter; letterNumberUnicodeTable++)
    {
        Console.WriteLine($"{(char)letterNumberUnicodeTable}- 
        {((char)letterNumberUnicodeTable).ToString().ToUpper()}");
    }
}

public void ShowEnglishAlphabetUnicodeTableEscapeSequence()
{
    var firstLetter = '\u0061';
    var endLetter = '\u007A';
    for (var letterNumberUnicodeTable = firstLetter; 
    letterNumberUnicodeTable <= endLetter; letterNumberUnicodeTable++)
    {
        Console.WriteLine($"{letterNumberUnicodeTable}- 
        {letterNumberUnicodeTable.ToString().ToUpper()}");
    }
}   

public void ShowEnglishAlphabetUnicodeTableLinq()
{
    var alphabets = Enumerable.Range('a', 26).Select(letter => 
    ((char)letter).ToString()).ToList();
    foreach (var letter in alphabets)
    {
        Console.WriteLine($"{letter}-{letter.ToUpper()}");
    }
}
