string[] a = { 2; a; 3; b; 4; c}
string[] b = { 2; a; 6; c}
I want to compare this two arrays and remove the all digit(2,3,4,6)values and store match string values in another array.
I want the result like this:
string[] c = {a; c;}
I was tried this but it was adding all the values.
string[] result = a.Union(b).ToArray();
Use Intersect and Where:
string[] result = a.Intersect(b).Where(c => !char.IsDigit(c[0])).ToArray();
Based on your comment to remove or replace the colon (;):
string[] result = a.Intersect(b).Where(c => !char.IsDigit(c[0]))
.Select(c => c.Replace(';',' ')).ToArray();
you need Intersect not Union
string[] result = a.Intersect(b).ToArray();
The easiest solution would be to use Linq to do the job
int tmp;
var c = a.Where(x => b.Contains(x) && !int.TryParse(x, out tmp)).ToArray();
; at the end of the digits. So the !int.TryParse(2;, out tmp) will evaluate to false and it returns it as result too.
, in place of ; so i tougth it's typo error. no matter what would you like to achive, "123" is a number, "123;" is a string.
Uniondoes NOT work like that. UseIntersect
