Get previous/next item of a given item in a List<>

Question

Says I have this List : 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 13

For example, given value is : 9, the previous item is 7 and the next item is 13

How can I achieve this using C#?

Answer 1

To make it a kind of Circular list, try this:

public class NavigationList : List
{
    private int _currentIndex = -1;
    public int CurrentIndex
    {
        get
        {
            if (_currentIndex == Count)
                _currentIndex = 0;
            else if (_currentIndex > Count - 1)
                _currentIndex = Count - 1;
            else if (_currentIndex < 0)
                _currentIndex = 0;


            return _currentIndex;
        }

        set { _currentIndex = value; }
    }

    public T MoveNext
    {
        get { _currentIndex++; return this[CurrentIndex]; }
    }

    public T Current
    {
        get { return this[CurrentIndex]; }
    }
}
