C# - Remove A Trailing Part Of String In .NET?
Jun 12, 2012For removing trailing part is I use the code
str.substring(0,str.length -2)
Is there a better way? I especially dislike using str.length.
Edit I wanted the question to be as short and simple as possible and I supposed that I just overlooked some String method. I try to be more precise.
I need to remove given number of characters from the end of a string. I don't want to care what the characters are and I don't want to introduce a risk of removing more characters.
If the number is larger then string length let's there is an exception (the string should be validated earlier).
I don't have the problem especially with length, but with referencing a variable twice (imagine a function instead of a variable). I also don't like necessity of subtraction but it is only a personal preference.
The question is taged vb.net so there is vb.net code (should be in a module):
<System.Runtime.CompilerServices.Extension> _
Public Shared Function RemoveFromEnd(stringValue As String, removedCharacters As Integer) As String
Return stringValue.Substring(0, stringValue.Length - removedCharacters)
End Function

Locating A Specific Part Of A String?
Jun 9, 2011I am trying to make a program which outputs an Invoice Number, which consists of the first 3 letters of a person's first name and the last 3 digits of their zip code. The user enter their first and last name, then enters their city, state, and zip such as:
Name: Billy Jones
City, State, Zip: Chicago, Illinois 42349
Therefore, the invoice would look like:
Invoice: Bil349
I can get the first 3 letters of the first name fine using the substring function, but I have been stumped on how to get past all of the text to get the last 3 digits of the zip code entered.
