Sometimes, you want to know if an object is an array. One way to do it is
if (obj.GetType().IsArray) {
...
}
Another way you can do it is
if (obj is Array) {
// ...
}
The advantage of using the Array type is that you can iterate over an array without bothering about the type of the objects it holds
foreach (object o in (Array)obj)
{
// ...
}
To set the value at a particular array index, iterate using a for loop
for (int i = 0; i < ((Array)obj).Length; i++)
{
((Array)obj).SetValue(someval, i);
}
To wrap it up, obtain the type of the elements of an array thus
obj.GetType().GetElementType()
