Parse string to int array

Question

Hi there I am working on increasing my knowledge of C# and I want to do a simple task but am finding it difficult.

I want to parse each character of a string to an int array.

    int[] d = new int[10];
     private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        s = textBox1.Text;

        d[2] = Convert.ToInt32(Convert.ToString(s[1]));
        d[3] = Convert.ToInt32(Convert.ToString(s[2]));
        d[4] = Convert.ToInt32(Convert.ToString(s[3]));
        d[5] = Convert.ToInt32(Convert.ToString(s[4]));
        .....

I know the code is wrong but I wanted to show an example. Have looked at Google for the past hour but have found people wanting to display characters in new lines and using if statements to parse. I want something similar to above. Can this be done? Thank you for your time.

I found this line of code in Java which is exactly what I want to do but is there an equivilant?

    d1 = Integer.parseInt(String.valueOf(s.charAt(0)));

I now have a new problem that when i submit a number no matter how many numbers i put in it will come back with "Index was outside the bounds of the array."

I also need to limit it to 10 integers in the array d.

Wrong brackets, to access the character within string.

d[2] = Convert.ToInt32(Convert.ToString(s(1)));
                                         ^

Use,

d[2] = Convert.ToInt32(Convert.ToString(s[1]));

Comes back with an error "Index was outside the bounds of the array." but thank you for pointing that one out.

Is the Textbox.text empty? Index is outside, only if the index you are giving is greater than the string length

 var intArr =  "12345678".Select(c => (int)(c-'0')).ToArray();

Try this:-

var intArrayOfText = someTextBox.Text.ToCharArray().Select(x => (int)(x-'0'));

(int)'0' does not produce 0.

Can be done like this , if the string is like below

        string temps = "-5 8 4 0 1 17 25 -5 -3";
        int[] integerArray = temps.Split(' ').Select(x => int.Parse(x)).ToArray();
        Array.Sort(integerArray);
        foreach (var item in integerArray)
        {
            Console.WriteLine(item);
        }
