c# - How do I store my numbers into an array? -

in code, trying generate 5 numbers. if of numbers equal 4, want store 4 array. i'm having trouble , code not store 4 array.

static void main()     {         random rand = new random();         int total = 0, randint;          console.writeline("the computer rolling dice...");         int[] fours = new int[total];          (int = 0; < 5; i++)         {             randint = rand.next(10);             console.writeline("the computer rolls {0:f0}", randint);             if (randint == 4)             {                 total +=fours[i]; //here trying store 4 array of 'fours'.              }          }          console.writeline(total); //this prints 0, regardless of 4's random number generator has generated. want print out how many 4's have rolled.         console.readline();     } 

this:

total +=fours[i] 

will attempt increment total int found @ index i of array (which 0, because int defaults 0).

this:

fours[i] = 4; 

is how assign 4 ith index in array.

read how assignment operator works in c#

the = operator called simple assignment operator. assigns value of right operand variable, property, or indexer element given the left operand.
