as keyword in c sharp


as 

The as operator is used to perform certain types of conversions between compatible reference types . The as operator is like a cast operation. However, if the conversion is not possible, as returns null instead of raising an exception

Example


class ClassA { }
class ClassB { }
 
class MainClass
{
    static void Main()
    {
        object[] objArray = new object[6];
        objArray[0] = new ClassA();
        objArray[1] = new ClassB();
        objArray[2] = "hello";
        objArray[3] = 123;
        objArray[4] = 123.4;
        objArray[5] = null;
 
        for (int i = 0; i < objArray.Length; ++i)
        {
            string s = objArray[i] as string;
            Console.Write("{0}:", i);
            if (s != null)
            {
                Console.WriteLine("'" + s + "'");
            }
            else
            {
                Console.WriteLine("not a string");
            }
        }
    }
}
/*
Output:
0:not a string
1:not a string
2:'hello'
3:not a string
4:not a string
5:not a string
*/
