How do you get the index of the current iteration of a foreach loop?

Question

Is there some rare language construct I haven\'t encountered (like the few I\'ve learned recently, some on Stack Overflow) in C# to get a value representing the current iter

Answer 1

I built this in LINQPad:

var listOfNames = new List(){"John","Steve","Anna","Chris"};

var listCount = listOfNames.Count;

var NamesWithCommas = string.Empty;

foreach (var element in listOfNames)
{
    NamesWithCommas += element;
    if(listOfNames.IndexOf(element) != listCount -1)
    {
        NamesWithCommas += ", ";
    }
}

NamesWithCommas.Dump();  //LINQPad method to write to console.

You could also just use string.join:

var joinResult = string.Join(",", listOfNames);
