I have the following string:
string x = "23;32;323;34;45";
and I want to replace 23 with X as below:
x = "x:32;323;34;45";
but when I try it, I get this instead:
x = "x:32;3x;34;45";
Is there a way I can get the expecte output?
You will need a regular expression (regexp). The replacement rule here is
so your code would look like this
var result = Regex.Replace(input, @"\b23\b", "X");
An alternative approach would be to split your string, replace matching elements and join to new string>
var result = string.Join(";", input.Split(";").Select(v => v == "23" ? "X" : v));
Assuming you know the key, that's easy:
myDict["thekey"] = Regex.Replace(myDict["thekey"], @"\b23\b", "X");
If you want to do this replacement for all items, I'd do it like this, but I'm not sure, if this is the best possible solution:
[Fact]
public void Replace_value_in_dict()
{
// given
var mydict = new Dictionary<string, string>
{
{ "key1", "donothing" },
{ "key2", "23;32;323;34;45" },
};
// when
var result = mydict
.Select(kv => (kv.Key, Regex.Replace(kv.Value, @"\b23\b", "X")))
.ToDictionary(x => x.Item1, x => x.Item2);
// then
Assert.Equal(result, new Dictionary<string, string>
{
{ "key1", "donothing" },
{ "key2", "X;32;323;34;45" },
});
}
You should use regex
var x="23;32;323;34;45";
var res = Regex.Replace(x, @"\b23\b", "x");
Console.WriteLine(res);
