How to get array of string from List<Tuple<int, int, string>>?

Question

Hi,

I was wondering is there an elegant way of geting string[] from List<Tuple<int, int, string>>?

I'm thinking of .NET way (preferable extension methods and lambda expressions :P)

P.S. Code is from .NET 3.5 project, so Tuple is my own implementation.

Answer 1

string[] s = tuples.Select((t) => t.Value3).ToArray();

(assuming "Value3" is the third value of the tuple)

Answer 2

var strings = list.Select(item => item.Item3).ToArray();
