IEnumerable.Select with index

Question

I have the following code:

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

where accidents i

Answer 1

May be this LINQ query will help you to find The formated name with Index:

var accidents=(from acc in accidents
    select new {
        id=accidents.IndexOf(acc),
        Name = acc.Replace("\"", string.Empty)
    }).ToArray()

or you can also use .ToList() for the case if you want result to be in IEnumerable format.

Answer 2

Use Enumerable.Range to generate the ID values and then use the current value to index into your String Array:

Enumerable.Range(0, accidents.Length).Select(f => new Accident() { Id = f, Name = accidents[f] })

Answer 3

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.
