Getting the index of a particular item in array

arrays, c#

Solution

You can use FindIndex

 var index = Array.FindIndex(myArray, row => row.Author == "xyz");

Edit: I see you have an array of string, you can use any code to match, here an example with a simple contains:

 var index = Array.FindIndex(myArray, row => row.Contains("Author='xyz'"));

Maybe you need to match using a regular expression?

Problem

I want to retrieve the index of an array but I know only a part of the actual value in the array. For example, I am storing an author name in the array dynamically say "author = 'xyz'". Now I want to find the index of the array item containing it, since I don't know the value part. How to do this?
