Q: How can I fill an array with sorted integers...e.g {0,1,2...10.....1000}

user3155191I would be grateful if you could help me with a small question I have. I would like to know if it is possible to fill a new array with already sorted integers :/ e.g {0,1,2...10.....1000}, but when I have a large number of integers, for example 12000

My problem with getting rep is that I downvote too much answers.

Hrm. I just wrote an answer, and the OP deleted the question like 60-90 seconds later.
That's frustrating.

An array is a bad idea if you want to loop over 12000 numbers.
Use a collection. (And c# is better)

@hichris123, seems like a fine very basic question.

German keyboard layout
The German keyboard layout is a QWERTZ keyboard layout commonly used in Germany and Austria. It is based on one defined in a former edition (October 1988) of the German standard DIN 2137-2. The current edition DIN 2137-1:2012-06 standardizes it as the first (basic) one of three layouts, calling it “T1” (“Tastaturbelegung 1” = “keyboard layout 1”). The German layout differs from the English (US and UK) layouts in four major ways: * The positions of the "Z" and "Y" keys are switched, this change being made for two major reasons: :* "Z" is a much more common letter than "Y" in German; the lat...

The rules when to use $ and when not are basic knowledge. Really basic. (For Tcl). But still.
