FirstIndex() and LastIndex()
Finds the index of the first of last occurence which matches the predicate.
Source
public static int FirstIndex<T>(this IEnumerable<T> list, Func<T, bool> predicate) {
int index = 0;
foreach (var item in list) {
if (predicate(item)) {
return index;
}
index++;
}
return -1;
}
public static int LastIndex<T>(this IEnumerable<T> list, Func<T, bool> predicate) {
int index = 0;
foreach (var item in list.Reverse()) {
if (predicate(item)) {
return list.Count() - index - 1;
}
index++;
}
return -1;
}
Example
int[] l = new int[] { 3, 2, 1, 2, 6 };
Console.WriteLine(l.FirstIndex(n => n == 2)); // 1
Console.WriteLine(l.LastIndex(n => n == 2)); // 3
