Remove text from string

Hey everyone,

I'm trying to figure out a good way (in C#) to remove one string from another...

so basically i would have something like this...

str1 = lookAtMe
str2 = AtMe

result = String.Remove(str2, str1)

Basically i want result to be look (so that AtMe comes out).

Thanks!
Bryan

 

lazy pants like me use Replace in such cases

str1 = lookAtMe
str2 = AtMe

result = str1.Replace(str2, "")


but there are other tricks too.

What in your case is the problem is that there is no such function (the remove requires int indexes and length, so you would have to extract its position with IndexOf first).

the string class is documented at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.string_methods.aspx

 

Hey thanks for the advice... i took the "lazy way" and it works like a charm. The upswing is the text i'm removing is a constant so YEAH ME!

Thanks a ton... i do appreciate it.

Cheers
Bryan

10+ years later. I'm in history too now

 

am I too late 10+ Years, for that small trick?

 

11+ years still works, hey future generations!

 

10 years and six months later and this is exactly what I needed.

 

5,594,661 minutes later and it still works

 

It has been 4047 days or 11 years 29 days or 132 months 29 days and this solution still works.

 

11 years later, my json string just won't have it.

 

Working like a charm for me.

 

13 years later! still helpful af

 

14 years later and... I don't need it

 

Code (CSharp):

1. var result = "StillNotWorking".Replace("Not", " ");

 

something something involving elapsed time and the usefulness of this piece of code. Thank you!
