C# Array initialization - with non-default value

Question

What is the slickest way to initialize an array of dynamic size in C# that you know of?

This is the best I could come up with

private bool[] GetPageN         


        

Answer 1

I would actually suggest this:

return Enumerable.Range(0, count).Select(x => true).ToArray();

This way you only allocate one array. This is essentially a more concise way to express:

var array = new bool[count];

for(var i = 0; i < count; i++) {
   array[i] = true;
}

return array;
