@Denis sorry, does this link work? its winforms, and basically I want to retrieve the data from the textboxes and make an object (Person) out of it and add to an array

And what doesn't work?
I see you create a new
Person successfully
At least I assume so, since you didn't mention any errors
And adding it to an array... well, it's a little tricky since you would also need to keep track on the last index you inserted into, so you can then add the object to the next index
Or just use a list instead of an array and .Add() the elementahh thank you! I was trying to use the .Add() but I didn´t realize it doesnt work for array. In an array it must be append right?
@ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ if I would to keep it as an array, then I would have to use a for loop right? to make sure that each index is a new one.
No, arrays are fixed size. There's no add, no append, you can only set the value at specific index
Not necessarily, no
You can keep the index in a field, and then increment the value whenever you add a new person
So there is no way to add to an array other than specifying the index?
I was thinking for example
String [] persons = [20];
For (int i =0; i<=persons.Length; i++)
{
persons[i] = new person (values)
}
Dont mind the syntax, just trying to convey the idea🙃

The lenght always is... the length of the array
So it will not change with adding new elements, if that was what you were hoping
You can, of course, add elements in a loop
But you get individual, singular inputs, right?
One element with one click of a button
There's no loop involved
Must it be an array? Most C# developers would use a list here instead of an array.
