How to convert from String array to float array?

How do i convert my string[] to float[]?

You'll want to run through the elements in the string array and convert them to a float... I'd suggest using float.TryParse(...) to do the conversion as well in order to have your program handle strings that aren't actually floats.

Have a look at the doc for the TryParse methods... as far as I know, all the numeric types have this method.

Raises the question "Why the values where in a string[] in the first place?".
Don't forget to handle the cases where the string in the array might be something like "r035198x".

To convert a string to any number format you have to use Parse() function.
Following lines will make use of parse clear:

string[] str = { "1.23", "0.45", "123.4322" };
float[] flt = new float[str.Length];

for (int i = 0; i < str.Length; i++)
flt[i] = float.Parse(str[i]);


str[] is string array which contains your data. Now, to convert this data into float type we call parse function and pass string in that as parameter. If we need to convert string to int we would have used:
inte[i] = int.Parse(str[i]);

But do make sure that your string contains valid data!!!!!!
