C# Create an Empty Array

To create an empty array in C#, call Array.Empty<T>() method where T is the datatype of elements in the array.

Example

In the following example, we create an empty string array in arr. To confirm, we shall print the length of this empty array to console.

Program.cs

using System;

namespace CSharpExamples {
    class Program {
        static void Main(string[] args) {
            string[] arr = Array.Empty<string>();
            Console.WriteLine("Length of Array : " + arr.Length);
        }
    }
}

Output

Length of Array : 0
