ArrayList.IndexOf Method (Object)

Searches for a specified object and returns the zero-based index number of the first occurrence of that object (if any) within the entire ArrayList collection.

Namespace: System.Collections
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

Syntax

public virtual int IndexOf (
         Objectvalue
)

Parameters

  • value
    The object you want to locate in the ArrayList collection. This value can be a null reference.

Return Value

The zero-based index number of the first occurrence of the specified object (if any) within the entire ArrayList collection. If there are no such occurrences, this method returns -1.

Remarks

The ArrayList collection is searched forward, starting at the first object in the collection and ending at the last object.

This method performs a linear search; therefore, the average execution time is proportional to the value of the Count property. In other words, this method is an O(n) operation, where n is the value of Count.

This method determines equality by calling the Object.Equals method.
