In C#, a 3-tuple is a
tuple that contains three elements and it is also known as
triple. You can create a 3-tuple using two different ways:
Using Tuple<T1,T2,T3>(T1, T2, T3) Constructor
You can create 3-tuple using Tuple<T1, T2,T3>(T1, T2, T3) constructor. It initializes a new instance of the Tuple<T1, T2, T3> class. But when you create a tuple using this constructor then
you have to specify the type of the element stored in the tuple.
Syntax:
public Tuple (T1 item1, T2 item2, T3 item3);
Parameters:
- item1: It is the value of the first tuple component.
- item2: It is the value of the second tuple component.
- item3: It is the value of the third tuple component.
Example:
Output:
Element 1: GeeksforGeeks
Element 2: 10
Element 3: C#
Using Create Method
You can also create 3-tuple with the help of Create method. When you use this method then
there is no need to specify the type of the elements stored in the tuple.
Syntax:
public static Tuple<T1,T2,T3> Create<T1, T2, T3> (T1 item1, T2 item2, T3 item3);
Type Parameters:
- T1: It is the type of the first tuple component.
- T2: It is the type of the second tuple component.
- T3: It is the type of the third tuple component.
Parameters:
- item1: It is the value of the first tuple component.
- item2: It is the value of the second tuple component.
- item3: It is the value of the third tuple component.
Return Type: This method returns 3-tuple whose value is
item1, item2, and
item3.
