The following example defines a TimeZoneTime structure that includes a TimeZoneInfo field and a DateTimeOffset field. It then calls the Clear method to clear one element in a two-element array of TimeZoneTime values. The method sets the value of the cleared element to the default value of a TimeZoneInfo object, which is null, and the default value of a DateTimeOffset object, which is DateTimeOffset.MinValue.

using System;

public struct TimeZoneTime
{
    public TimeZoneTime(DateTimeOffset dateTime, TimeZoneInfo timeZone)
    {
        DateTime = dateTime;
        TimeZone = timeZone;
    }

    public DateTimeOffset DateTime { get; }

    public TimeZoneInfo TimeZone { get; }
}

public class Example1
{
    public static void RunIt()
    {
        // Declare an array with two elements.
        TimeZoneTime[] timeZoneTimes = {
            new(DateTime.Now, TimeZoneInfo.Local),
            new(DateTime.Now, TimeZoneInfo.Utc)
        };
        foreach (var timeZoneTime in timeZoneTimes)
            Console.WriteLine("{0}: {1:G}",
                              timeZoneTime.TimeZone == null ? "<null>" : timeZoneTime.TimeZone.ToString(),
                              timeZoneTime.DateTime);
        Console.WriteLine();

        Array.Clear(timeZoneTimes, 1, 1);
        foreach (var timeZoneTime in timeZoneTimes)
            Console.WriteLine("{0}: {1:G}",

Remarks

This method resets each element in an array to the element type's default value. It sets elements of reference types (including String elements) to null, and sets elements of value types to the default values shown in the following table.

Type Value
Boolean false
All integral and floating point numeric types 0 (zero)
DateTime DateTime.MinValue
Other value types Default value of the type's fields

The range of cleared elements wrap from row to row in a multi-dimensional array.

This method only clears the values of the elements; it does not delete the elements themselves. An array has a fixed size; therefore, elements can't be added or removed.

This method is an $O(n)$ operation, where $n$ is length.
