Rajesh, your answer is the best on this page (my 5).
(You could even better advice using regular help though.) Asking such questions indicate amazing degree of laziness and impudence, so down-voting like of answers like that is natural. Why not ignoring them (not for the sake of score, of course)?

Solution 3

Use substring function

string str="this is good";
string s0 = str.Substring(1, 4);

He said 2nd position. Since character arrays are 0-based, that should be "Substring(1, 4)".

Yes my mistake updated sir.

So how is your response any different from mine?

I actually didn't refresh before posting else I wouldn't have post the same.

Don't use System.String's substring when string's substr will suffice. The System.String class is a lot slower.

Just noticed this is a C# question. In that case you might use SubString for convenience.

Solution 1

I think you mean to say you want the portion of the string (or what is commonly called a "substring").

C#

string x = "this is good";
string y = x.Substring(1,4);

The variable y should contain "his ".

Nice, but you perhaps should have included information about 0 based indexing... (+5)... (Kidding about the 0 based, of course)
