Assigning an Array to Repeater Control

In my project I am using a Repeater control.
The Repeater Control has a maximum of only 4 Rows.
And these values are hardcoded not coming from any database.
How to add these values to Repeater Control Dynamically.
I tried assigning array to Repeater.
Its neither giving any error nor returning any rows in the Repeater.
Any help will be highly appreciated.

string[] strArray = new string[] { "Index1", "Index2", "Index3" };
        this.rptChartList.DataSource = strArray;
        this.rptChartList.DataBind();

Please use datatable instead of array as below.

Please Correct the letter case problems

datatable dt = new datatable();
DataRow dr = new DataRow();
dt.columns.add("index");
dr = dt.NewRow();
dr("index") = "index1";
dt.rows.add(dr);
dr = dt.newRow();
 
dr("index") = "index2";
dt.Rows.Add(dr);
 
.....
and so on.
 
and then
 
rpt.DataSource = dt;
rpt.DataBind();

Hi Amar 31282

the line 5 , 9 giving me an error

dr("index") = "index1";

For the above line I am getting the following error.
"dr is a Variable but used like a Method".

Could you tell me where exactly we are doing mistake.
Thanks
