What do braces do inside writeline

[rokit]

Console.WriteLine("{0}{1}", " ", m)

What is {0}{1} ?

 

[Will Gillen]

"Replace With"

for example if you had:
Console.WriteLine("{0}--{1}","xxx","yyy")

Your output would look like:
"xxx--yyy"

Hope this helps...

Rokit,
As Will suggests, they allow WriteLine to do Composite Formatting.

For details on formatting see Formatting Types in MSDN:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/d...y/en-us/cpguide/html/cpconformattingtypes.asp

For details on Composite Formatting specifically see the Composite
Formatting topic under Formatting Types.

Hope this helps
Jay
