C# | Tuple<T1> Class
The Tuple<T1> class is used to create 1-tuple or singleton which contains only a single element in it. You can instantiate a Tuple <T1> object by calling either the Tuple<T1> constructor or by the static Tuple.Create method. You can retrieve the value of the tuple’s single element by using the read-only Item1 instance property.
Important Points:
- It implements IStructuralComparable, IStructuralEquatable, and IComparable interface.
- It defined under System namespace.
- It represent multiple data into a single data set.
- It allows us to create, manipulate, and access data set.
- It returns multiple values from a method without using out parameter.
- It allows passing multiple values to a method with the help of single parameters.
- It can also store duplicate elements.
Constructor
| Constructor | Description |
|---|---|
| Tuple<T1>(T1) | Initializes a new instance of the Tuple<T1> class. |
Property
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| Item1 | Gets the value of the Tuple<T1> object’s single element. |
Example:
// C# program to illustrate the constructor // and property of class Tuple<T1>using System; class GFG { // Main method static public void Main() { // Creating 1-Tuple // Using Tuple<T1>(T1) Tuple<int> mytuple = new Tuple<int>(22); // Accessing the values Console.WriteLine("Value of the Element is: " + mytuple.Item1); }} |
Output:
Value of the Element is: 22
Methods
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
| Equals(Object) | Returns a value that indicates whether the current Tuple<T1> object is equal to a specified object. |
| GetHashCode() | Returns the hash code for the current Tuple<T1> object. |
| GetType() | Gets the Type of the current instance. |
| MemberwiseClone() | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. |
| ToString() | Returns a string that represents the value of this Tuple<T1> instance. |
Example:
// C# program to determine the // given tuples are equal or notusing System; class GFG { // Main method static public void Main() { // Creating 1-Tuple // Using Tuple<T1>(T1) Tuple<int> mytuple1 = new Tuple<int>(22); Tuple<int> mytuple2 = new Tuple<int>(22); // Using Equals method if (mytuple1.Equals(mytuple2)) { Console.WriteLine("Tuple Matched.."); } else { Console.WriteLine("Tuple not matched.."); } }} |
Output:
Tuple Matched..
