Convert char array to string in C#

The string class constructor takes an array of characters to create a new string from an array of characters. In this article, learn how to convert a char array to a string in C#.

The following code creates two strings, first from a string and second by direct passing the array in the constructor.

// Convert char array to string
char[] chars = new char[10];  
chars[0] = 'M';
chars[1] = 'a';
chars[2] = 'h';
chars[3] = 'e';
chars[4] = 's';
chars[5] = 'h';
string charsStr = new string(chars);
string charsStr2 = new string(new char[]
{'T','h','i','s',' ','i','s',' ','a',' ','s','t','r','i','n','g'});
Here is a complete sample code:
public void StringToCharArray()  
{  
  
    // Convert string to char array  
    string sentence = "Mahesh Chand";  
    char[] charArr = sentence.ToCharArray();  
    foreach (char ch in charArr)  
    {  
  
        Console.WriteLine(ch);  
    }   
  
    // Convert char array to string  
    char[] chars = new char[10];  
    chars[0] = 'M';  
    chars[1] = 'a';  
    chars[2] = 'h';  
    chars[3] = 'e';  
    chars[4] = 's';  
    chars[5] = 'h';  
    string charsStr = new string(chars);  
    string charsStr2 = new string(new char[]  
    {'T','h','i','s',' ','i','s',' ','a',' ','s','t','r','i','n','g'});  
    Console.WriteLine("Chars to string: {0}", charsStr);  
    Console.WriteLine("Chars to string: {0}", charsStr2);  
}

The output looks like the following:
