Which of the three approaches below is the best? Probably a dumb question but I'm always questioning myself. I could imagine that once you do more than one action with an item in a loop it would be better to cache it first but at the same time you're making a new variable each time you go through a list which makes me doubt it. Any insight on the best approach? Thanks!
//This one: Note that I'm not storing a list item in a new variable
for(int i = 0; i < userData.Count; i++){
if (userData[i].id == userid){
currentUserData = userData[i];
break;
}
}
//This one: Storing in a new variable before doing multiple actions with it
for (int i = 0; i < userData.Count; i++){
UserData user = userData[i];
if (user.id == userid){
currentUserData = user;
break;
}
}
//Or this one where I create the variable before looping, maybe avoiding a lot of new allocations(?)
UserData user = null;
for (int i = 0; i < userData.Count; i++){
user = userData[i];
if (user.id == userid){
currentUserData = user;
break;
}
}
