C# Span and Memory Optimization

Work with contiguous memory allocations with zero memory allocations.

❮ Previous

Span<T> and ReadOnlySpan<T> provide type-safe representations of contiguous regions of arbitrary memory. They enable zero-allocation string slicing and parser performance.

C# Span and Memory Optimization Code Example

using System;

class Program {
    static void Main() {
        string url = "https://codesintech.com/services";
        ReadOnlySpan<char> span = url.AsSpan();
        ReadOnlySpan<char> protocol = span.Slice(0, 5);
        Console.WriteLine($"Protocol sliced without heap allocation: {protocol.ToString()}");
    }
}

Output

Protocol sliced without heap allocation: https
