     @phnt @tinfoil-hat remember: a string is just an array of characters so you can always just use a for loop instead

     @eric @phnt @tinfoil-hat this isn't c, there is no null terminator after the string in c# so you'd just have an exception thrown when you try accessing out of bounds index on it

     @phnt @eric @tinfoil-hat hackiest shit ever though, not to mention my purposeful omission of the inconvenience of having to write a loop every time you want to get the length of a string in the most inefficient way possible when there's a cached number in memory already

     @dsm @kirby @eric @tinfoil-hat Since it's a static string that is never changed, I wouldn't be surprised if the compiler embedded some info about that string into the binary which the runtime can then use.

     @dsm @eric @phnt @tinfoil-hat like I dunno, if you were to write a generic array type for a language it might look something like this:
     
     struct {
     void *data;
     size_t data_len;
     };
     
     not thinking cpu cache I'm just saying theres probably a value in memory which has the length of the object already.

     @eric @phnt @tinfoil-hat That's the for in loop, stops automatically when it reaches the end of an array. Still probably references a cached value to know when it reaches the end. I was thinking of the traditional 3 column for loop though.

     Fair enough.
     
     I really need to pick C# back up actually, I know it's shat on a lot but actually SUPER enjoyed all the features it had. (Felt super easy to jump from PHP / Kotlin / Java background)
     
     It's main two fucking issues are the documentation is ASS and it did that thing where EVERYTHING became an Object no matter what is in the standard library.
     
     I once wanted to add a user-agent to one of the most common Web Client Library's request header (bypass anti-spam shtuff) and not only could I find no documentation on the process (the documentation I found was for a much older version) but when I decided "Fuck it, I'll just read the source and see where I can update / inject my own header..."
     
     THE CLIENT HAD A PAYLOAD OBJECT
     
     THE PAYLOAD OBJECT HAD A HEADER OBJECT
     
     THE HEADER OBJECT HAD A PROPERTY OBJECT
     
     THE PROPERTY OJBECT-
     
     And it just kept fucking going and it's like, motherfucker why don't you just use a map and serialize the fucking thing?! Anyway rant over.
     
     TL;DR Fuck C#, I love that language.

     I think iterating over a string to get it's length is kinda retarded. Kirby has a point that any decent language probably caches and updates a "length" property of the string and will have MUCH faster access time.

     wouldn't work in c# unless you catch the out of bounds exception that will inevitably be thrown, and is totally unnecessary anyways when there's a fucking abstraction in c# you can use instead.
