Remarks

For example, if separator is ", " and the elements of value are "apple", "orange", "grape", and "pear", Join(separator, value) returns "apple, orange, grape, pear".

If separator is null, an empty string (String.Empty) is used instead. If any element in value is null, an empty string is used instead.

Join(String, IEnumerable<String>) is a convenience method that lets you concatenate each element in an IEnumerable(Of String) collection without first converting the elements to a string array. It is particularly useful with Language-Integrated Query (LINQ) query expressions. The following example passes a List(Of String) object that contains either the uppercase or lowercase letters of the alphabet to a lambda expression that selects letters that are equal to or greater than a particular letter (which, in the example, is "M"). The IEnumerable(Of String) collection returned by the Enumerable.Where method is passed to the Join(String, IEnumerable<String>) method to display the result as a single string.

   {
      string output = String.Join(" ", GetAlphabet(true).Where( letter => 
                      letter.CompareTo("M") >= 0));
      Console.WriteLine(output);  
   }

   {
      List<string> alphabet = new List<string>();

      for (int ctr = 0; ctr <= 25; ctr++)
         alphabet.Add(((char)(charValue + ctr)).ToString());
      return alphabet; 
   }
}

Remarks

If separator is null or if any element of values other than the first element is null, an empty string (String.Empty) is used instead. See the Notes for Callers section if the first element of values is null.

Join(String, Object[]) is a convenience method that lets you concatenate each element in an object array without explicitly converting its elements to strings. The string representation of each object in the array is derived by calling that object's ToString method.

Notes to Callers

.NET Framework only: If the first element of values is null, the Join(String, Object[]) method does not concatenate the elements in values but instead returns Empty. A number of workarounds for this issue are available. The easiest is to assign a value of Empty to the first element of the array, as the following example shows.

object[] values = { null, "Cobb", 4189, 11434, .366 };
if (values[0] == null) values[0] = String.Empty;
Console.WriteLine(String.Join("|", values));

// The example displays the following output:
//      |Cobb|4189|11434|0.366
let values: obj[] = [| null; "Cobb"; 4189; 11434; 0.366 |]
if values[0] = null then 
   values[0] <- String.Empty
printfn $"""{String.Join("|", values)}"""

// The example displays the following output:
//      |Cobb|4189|11434|0.366
Dim values() As Object = { Nothing, "Cobb", 4189, 11434, .366 }
If values(0) Is Nothing Then values(0) = String.Empty
Console.WriteLine(String.Join("|", values))
' The example displays the following output:
'      |Cobb|4189|11434|0.366

Remarks

If separator is null, an empty string (String.Empty) is used instead. If any member of values is null, an empty string is used instead.

Join<T>(String, IEnumerable<T>) is a convenience method that lets you concatenate each member of an IEnumerable<T> collection without first converting them to strings. The string representation of each object in the IEnumerable<T> collection is derived by calling that object's ToString method.

This method is particular useful with Language-Integrated Query (LINQ) query expressions. For example, the following code defines a very simple Animal class that contains the name of an animal and the order to which it belongs. It then defines a List<T> object that contains a number of Animal objects. The Enumerable.Where extension method is called to extract the Animal objects whose Order property equals "Rodent". The result is passed to the Join<T>(String, IEnumerable<T>) method.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;

public class Animal
{
   public string Kind;
   public string Order;
   
   public Animal(string kind, string order)
   {
      this.Kind = kind;
      this.Order = order;
   }
   
   public override string ToString()
   {
      return this.Kind;
   }
}

public class Example
{
   public static void Main()
   {
      List<Animal> animals = new List<Animal>();
      animals.Add(new Animal("Squirrel", "Rodent"));
      animals.Add(new Animal("Gray Wolf", "Carnivora"));
      animals.Add(new Animal("Capybara", "Rodent"));
      string output = String.Join(" ", animals.Where( animal => 
                      (animal.Order == "Rodent")));
      Console.WriteLine(output);  
   }
}

// This example uses F#'s Seq.filter function instead of Linq.
