Array.ToString() returning System.Char[] c#
Array.ToString() returning System.Char[] c#
Calling ToString on a simple array only returns T[] regardless what the type T is. It doesnt have any special handling for char[].
To convert a char[] to string you can use:
string s = new string(charArray);
But for your concrete problem there is an even simpler solution:
string stars = new string(*, PlayerOneWord.Length);
The constructor public String(char c, int count) repeats c count times.
The variable stars is an array of chars. This is the reason you get this error. As it is stated in MSDN
Returns a string that represents the current object.
In order you get a string from the characters in this array, you could use this:
Console.Write(Word to Guess: {0} , new String(stars));
Array.ToString() returning System.Char[] c#
The correct way to do this would be:
string StarString = new string(stars);
ToString() calls the standard implementation of the Array-classs ToString-method which is the same for all Arrays and similarily to object only returns the fully qualified class name.
