How to populate a dataGridView with an array of user generated integers

With this:

dataGridView.DataSource = theData.Select((x, index) =>
    new { CreatureRoll = x, CreatureLabel = index}).OrderByDescending(x =>    x.CreatureRoll).ToList();

It produces the data correctly, But it produces all the rows in the array with extra data that will not be useful, empty data.

Would like to remove unnecessary rows of data

You can use LINQ to generate the datasource from a array.

int[] theData = new int[] { 14, 17, 5, 11, 2 };
dataGridView1.DataSource = theData.Where(x => x>0).Select((x, index) =>
    new { RecNo = index + 1, ColumnName = x }).OrderByDescending(x => x.ColumnName).ToList();

You can have code like this also,

dataGridView1.Columns.Add("Index", "Index");
dataGridView1.Columns.Add("Value", "Dice Value");
int[] theData = new int[] { 5, 2, 1, 5, 4, 1, 3, 1};

for (int i = 0; i < theData.Length; i++)
{
     dataGridView1.Rows.Add(new object[] { i+1, theData[i] });
}

Output

Take a look at this .NET / C# Binding IList<string> to a DataGridView

Setting the datasource to an array will not display anything. Basically the values need to have a named property and need to implement IList to be able to be used as a DataSource. Something like this should do your bidding.

var array = new int[] { 3, 4, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 };
dataGridView1.AutoGenerateColumns = true;
dataGridView1.DataSource = array.Select(x => new { IntValue = x }).ToList();

Try this:

int[] ints = new int[] { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 };
gvMain.DataSource = ints;
gvMain.DataBind();

gvMain is a GridView, You can Add user generated array instead of ints.
