asp dropdownlist – add numbers 1-15 to list

Is there a way of adding the values 1-15 to an asp dropdownlist without having to do each one individually…

I currently have:

ddlAdults.Items.Insert(0, new listitem("1", "1"))
ddlAdults.Items.Insert(1, new listitem("2", "2"))
ddlAdults.Items.Insert(2, new listitem("3", "3"))
ddlAdults.Ite......

…etc but there has to be a better way.

Method 1

ddlAdults.DataSource = Enumerable.Range(1, 15)
ddlAdults.DataBind()

Method 2

For i As Integer = 1 To 15
    ddlAdults.Items.Add(new ListItem(i.ToString(), i.ToString()))
Next i

Method 3

for(int i=0;i<15;i++)
{
   ddlAdults.Items.Insert(i, new ListItem((i+1).toString(), (i+1).toString()));
}

Method 4

Use a loop?

Like for loop or a foreach loop.

or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foreach

That should help u, as I dont know what language u’re programming in..

Method 5

//cmbDay.Items.Insert(0, new ListItem("1"));
//cmbDay.Items.Insert(1, new ListItem("2"));
//cmbDay.Items.Insert(2, new ListItem("3"));
//cmbDay.Items.Insert(3, new ListItem("4"));

for( i=0;i<15;i++)
    {
       cmbDay.Items.Insert(i,new ListItem(i.ToString()));
    }
