Problem
So I would like to split a string in two by the last space within the first 40 characters, the best solution I could think of:
public static void Main(string[] sargs)
{
var address = "...Are included in two of the " +
"substrings. If you want to exclude the " +
"period characters, you can add the period...";
var splitIndex = address.LastIndexOf(' ', 40);
var address1 = address.Substring(0, splitIndex);
var address2 = address.Substring(splitIndex + 1, address.Length - splitIndex - 1);
Console.WriteLine(address1);
Console.WriteLine(address2);
}
Is there a better, faster or more elegant way of doing it?
Solution
You can use the index and range operators instead of SubString
calls
var address = "...Are included in two of the " +
"substrings. If you want to exclude the " +
"period characters, you can add the period...";
var splitIndex = address.LastIndexOf(' ', 40);
Console.WriteLine(address[..splitIndex]);
Console.WriteLine(address[(splitIndex+1)..]);
