Get a certain String from text

Question

How do you get this string from this data? (The bolded part is what I want)

Id: 20 - Cow Amt: **10**

Id: 25 - Example Amt: **5**

I made this code to remove everything else except for the ID number

id = id.Replace("Id: ", "")

If (id.ToString.Length > 5) Then
    id = id.Substring(0, id.IndexOf("-") - 1).Trim()

But now I want to also get the Amt: number as well. The outcome of the code so far is this:

20

It just prints out the id. But how do you get the 10? So it would look like this:

20 10

Answer 1

Try the following

 var subjectString = "Id: 20 - Cow Amt: 10"; string[] values = Regex.Split(subjectString, @"\\D+"); foreach (string value in values) { int number; if (int.TryParse(value, out number)) { Console.WriteLine(value); } }
