If all elements in bool array are true?

Question

I'm having difficulty using the array.All<> function.

private bool noBricksLeft() {
    bool[] dead = new bool[brick.Length];

    for (int i = 0; i < brick.GetLength(0); i++) {
        if (brickLocation[i, 2] == 0)
            dead[i] = true;
        else
            continue; // move onto the next brick
    }

    if (dead.All(dead[] == true)) // IF ALL OF THE ELEMENTS ARE TRUE
        return true;
    else
        return false;
}

I'm wondering how I can achieve if (dead.All(dead[] == true))?

Answer 1

You can simply use a lambda-expression:

if (dead.All(x => x))

Given you using System.Linq's IEnumerable<T>.All method.

will do the trick. Furthermore an if statement that returns the answer is useless, so you can rewrite it to:

private bool noBricksLeft() {
    bool[] dead = new bool[brick.Length];

    for (int i = 0; i < brick.GetLength(0); i++) {
        if (brickLocation[i, 2] == 0)
            dead[i] = true;
        else
            continue; //move onto the next brick
    }

    return dead.All(x => x);
}

Another idea, partly borrowed from @royhowie is the following:

private bool noBricksLeft() {
    return Enumerable.Range(0,brick.Length).All(i => brickLocation[i,2] == 0);
}
