vb6 - String(33, 0) in VB 6.0 and equivalent in C# -

what meaning of username = string(33, 0) in vb 6.0 , equivalent in c#.

please i'm getting error while converting vb 6.0 code c#.

thanks in advance.

string in vb6 function returns string containing repeating character string of length specified.

string(number,character)

example:

strtest = string(5, "a") ' strtest = "aaaaa"  strtest = string(5, 97) ' strtest = "aaaaa" (97 ascii code "a")

in case, string(33,0) return string containing 33 null characters.

the equivalent in c# be

username = new string('\0', 33);
