In C#, a 5-tuple is a
tuple that contains five elements and it is also known as
quintuple. You can create a 5-tuple using two different ways:
Using Tuple<T1,T2,T3,T4,T5>(T1, T2, T3, T4, T5) Constructor
You can create 5-tuple using Tuple<T1, T2, T3, T4, T5>(T1, T2, T3, T4, T5) constructor. It initializes a new instance of the Tuple<T1, T2, T3, T4, T5> 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, T4 item4, T5 item5);
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.
- item4: It is the value of the fourth tuple component.
- item5: It is the value of the fifth tuple component.
Example:
Output:
Element 1: GeeksforGeeks
Element 2: 10
Element 3: G
Element 4: 20.4
Element 5: Geeks
Using Create Method
You can also create 5-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,T4,T5> Create<T1, T2, T3, T4, T5> (T1 item1, T2 item2, T3 item3, T4 item4, T5 item5);
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.
- T4: It is the type of the fourth tuple component.
- T5: It is the type of the fifth 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.
- item4: It is the value of the fourth tuple component.
- item5: It is the value of the fifth tuple component.
Return Type: This method returns 5-tuple whose value is
item1, item2,
item3,
item4 and
item5.
