Check if a variable is in an ad-hoc list of values

Anonymous User 2172 06-Jun-2013

Hi Expert,

Is there a shorter way of writing something like this:

if(x==1 || x==2 || x==3) // do something

What I'm looking for is something like this:

if(x.in((1,2,3)) // do something

Please help.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Expert,

You could achieve this by using the List.Contains method:

if(new []{1, 2, 3}.Contains(x))

{

//x is either 1 or 2 or 3

}

I hope it helpful for you.
