Different Type of String Operations in .NET using C#

In .NET there are several types of string operations like – calculate length, substring operations, case change, replace, character array, string array. There are already predefined functions for these operations. Just we need to use it in the proper place.

In this post, we are going to discuss some popular operations of string. We will learn the following things with the proper example so that it becomes easier to understand for learners.

string result1 = str.Substring(11);       //Define only starting position. Print data from starting position to end of string
string result2 = str.Substring(0, 7);     //Define starting position, lentgh. Print data of that length from starting given position. 
Console.WriteLine(result1);
Console.WriteLine(result2);

Output:

Change case of a string

Here we will convert the string to UPPER case and LOWER case

string str = "Welcome to Codespeedy";
Console.WriteLine(str.ToLower());     //Convert to Lower case letter
Console.WriteLine(str.ToUpper());     //Convert to Upper case letter

Output:
