Hi,

I would like to know what we call the selected value or current value of foreach variable as ?

E.g.

C#

foreach (string fileName in FilesArray)
{
    Console.WriteLine(fileName);
}

Now every time the loop executes, we'll have a value in fileName.
What do we call the value in fileName at a given point of loop execution?

*IF* I understand your question, and that is a big if, fileName would be an element of the FilesArray.

I would call it: "current value of the foreach loop variable".
