Wild Integer

[lothos12345]

Is there a way to search for any integer value in a string and remove it? Any help given is greatly appreciated.

string str = "abc124de6g";

 

for (int i = 0; i < str.Length; ++i)

{

if (Char.IsNumber(str, i))

str.Remove(i, 1);

}

If you mean removing every digit, here is a more efficient way.

 

        'Declare string builder with the maximum capacity possibly needed to prevent memory reallocation.
       Dim tempStr As New System.Text.StringBuilder(myString.Length)

       For i As Integer = 0 To myString.Length - 1
           If Not Char.IsDigit(myString.Chars(i)) Then
               tempStr.Append(myString.Chars(i))
           End If
       Next

       Dim str As String = tempStr.ToString()

C#:

// Declare string builder with the maximum capacity possibly needed to prevent memory reallocation.
System.Text.StringBuilder tempStr = new System.Text.StringBuilder(myString.Length);

for (int i = 0; i < myString.Length; i++)
{
if (!char.IsDigit(myString[i]))
{
	tempStr.Append(myString[i]);
}
}

string str = tempStr.ToString();

This method avoids the continual memory reallocation that would result from multiple calls to String.Remove, which would be particularly important if the original string is long.

System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Replace(text' date=' "d", "");[/quote']Nice. Haven't used Regex too much but it just seems to get usefuller and usefuller.
