Tokenizer question

[burak]

Hello,

 

I will start working on a project where we have to parse a string and store the words and the number of times each word appears.

 

I know you can use the Split function to split a string into words and then I'd have to savethe words and keep a track of how many times each one appears.

 

Does .NET already have a way to do this?

 

Thank you,

To save a word you can use the follow expresion:

 

(?<word>\w+)

after that you will have the result in the group of your Match object: Match.Gropus("word").value

If you want to save more than one word, the expresion should like :

(?<desc>\w+(\s+\w+)*)

 

In order to count how many times appears: Match.Count

 

I hope it help you,

Alvaro
