IEnumerable.Select with index

Question

I have the following code:

 var accidents = text.Skip(NumberOfAccidentsLine + 1).Take(numberOfAccidentsInFile).ToArray();

where accidents i

Answer 1

I'm not sure what kind of index you're looking for, but if it's just set of consecutive numbers then you're lucky. There is Select overload that does exactly that:

return accidents.Select((t, i) => new Accident() {Id = i, Name = t.Replace("\"", string.Empty)}).ToArray();

It expects a delegate that takes two parameters - the item and its index.
