Question by cadellinman · Aug 19, 2015 at 12:02 PM · c#arraystringconvert

Most efficient way to convert string[] to int [] in C#?

Hi there. I have here a short string[], with each of those strings just being a single whole number. I have seen lots of different ways people have been converting those into int[], but does anyone know which method is the most efficient?

Create different script for different methods. Attach them to an empty object. duplicate that item thousand times. run your game. Check in profiler which script takes least amount of time. theres your most efficient way.

Thats not the way to go. Use deep profiler to test the costs of a specific method.

I didn't do a performance test before but this one i uses, since it is a bit shorter way, but this link can be use for performance benchmark, i added two alternatives, you can add the remaining and pick the best one:

 string[] test = new string[] {"1", "2", "3", "4", "5"};
 int[] arr = Array.ConvertAll<string, int>(test, int.Parse);

Test the performance of your program and do major optimization before you think about such micro optimizations.
