Arrays are fixed size. If you want to make an array grow you have to create a new array with the desired size and copy all the elements from the existing array to the new one. The Array.Resize method will do that for you but that's not something you should be doing too often. It's quite time consuming, especially with larger arrays. If you want a "dynamic array" then you should be using a List<T>, which exists specifically for the purpose.
