C# Splitting Strings on `#` character

C# Splitting Strings on `#` character

In C#, you can split a string on the # character using the Split method provided by the string class. The Split method allows you to divide a string into substrings based on a specified delimiter. Here's how you can do it:

using System; class Program { static void Main() { string inputString = "Hello#World#C#Splitting#Example"; // Split the inputString using '#' as the delimiter string[] substrings = inputString.Split('#'); // Output the individual substrings foreach (string substring in substrings) { Console.WriteLine(substring); } } } 

Output:

Hello World C Splitting Example 

In this example, we have an inputString containing words separated by the # character. We use the Split('#') method to split the string into an array of substrings based on the # delimiter. Each substring is stored in the substrings array, and we use a foreach loop to output each substring to the console.

Keep in mind that the Split method returns an array of substrings. If the input string contains multiple consecutive # characters, the Split method will include empty strings in the resulting array. For example, if the input string is "Hello##World", the output array will contain three elements: "Hello", "" (empty string), and "World". To exclude empty entries from the result, you can pass StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries as a second argument to the Split method:

string[] substrings = inputString.Split(new char[] { '#' }, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries); 

With this overload, the resulting array will only contain non-empty substrings.
