Replace Words In A Sentence?

May 14, 2012

I am trying to replace words in a sentence.

Code:
Public Function convert(ByVal sentence As String) As String
Dim conv As String = sentence
conv = Replace(conv, "I am ", "you are")
conv = Replace(conv, "I'm", "you are")

This works to some degree but a word like "Mommy" becomes "Momyour". Or "mean" becomes "youan" How can I do this with full words only? I've tried putting spaces before and after within the quotes, but then any of the words that need changed at the beginning of a paragraph, don't change because there is no space at the beginning.

Prepend A String To All Strings In A List Of Strings?

Aug 5, 2010

I have a list of strings. For each string in that list, I want to prepend another string. I wrote a method to do it, but I was wondering if there was something already in .NET I could use to do this. It seems like something that could be built in, but I was not able to find anything.

Here is the method I wrote:

Private Function PrependToAllInList(ByRef inputList As List(Of String), ByRef prependString As String) As List(Of String)
Dim returnList As List(Of String) = New List(Of String)
For Each inputString As String In inputList
returnList.Add(String.Format("{0}{1}", prependString, inputString))

[code].....

It works, but I would rather use built in functions whenever possible.

VS 2008 Using List Of Strings Or Array Of Strings?

Oct 16, 2009

I'm migrating from VB6 to VB.NET, in hence my questions below:

I have to write a function that returns array of strings.

How can I initiate it to empty array? I need it since I have to check if it's empty array after it returns from this function.

Is list of arrays better for this purpose? If I use a list - Is it empty when it firstly defined? How can I check it it's empty?

VS 2010 Find, Replace Certain Strings In Text Files?

May 19, 2012

First it might sound like an ordinary task but keep reading it isn't. I can't figure out how to find a phrase in a text file, and replace it with something else. Tried lots of things but always ending up with empty hands.

Suppose there's a text file in this order:

valueabc=6000.0000
valuettt=200.0000
valuexyz=7000.0000

I want to;

1) Find the phrase (e.g. valueabc) by scanning the whole text,

2) Replace the number that starts after "=" and ends before ".", namely "6000" in the middle with any number value i want.

I don't need the parts before "=" and after ".", only the number in the middle.

.net - Regex Replacing Non-words Chars In Strings, Ignoring Specific Chars?

Oct 8, 2011

In VB.net I've got the following line that removes all non-alphanumeric chars from a string:

return Regex.Replace(build, "[W]", "")

I now need to extend this to remove non-alphanumeric chars that aren't [] or _. I've changed the line to:

return Regex.Replace(build, "[W[]_]", "")

However I'm pretty sure that this says

replace non-word or [ or ] or _

how do I negate the tests for the [] and _ chars so that it says

replace non-word and not [ and not ] and not _

Some examples:

"[Foo Bar_123456]" => "[FooBar_123456]"
"[Foo Bar_123-456*]" => "[FooBar_123456]"

Dim result = fruits.Where(Function(fruit) Not fruit.Except(letters).Any())

If I have this list:

Dim fruit as List(Of string) from {"apple","orange","pear","banana"}

And I input "p a p l e r" then it would return "apple" and "pear", but if I enter "a p l e r" then it would return just "pear". The idea is to return all words, which can be made of entered letters without duplicating any single letter. How to optimize this Linq code?

"replace" Words In PDF File Using ITextSharp

Jun 6, 2012

I have been given a task to replace text within an existing PDF file. I played around with iTextSharp and is halfway.

I did come accross an excellent sample on the CodeBank by stanav, which I have been using.

Now, I know that you cannot replace the existing text on the file, because a PDF document is not a Word document as such. So my way of thinking is to draw a block around the existing text, and resave the file.

I need to find the precise x & y location of the text, and then I could draw the block(s) over it - that way, blanking the words out.

This is my
