Easiest way is to use a regex:

(?:\()\d+(?:\))

should do it.

Damn... I really wanted to avoid these this time :)

You could do it with IndexOf and Substring, but that's pretty much what the regex is doing anyway, with the added check for numeric only between the brackets.

Sometimes, a regex really is the simplest solution! :laugh:

OP didn't ask for the simplest solution, but I also would use regexes ;)

My two cents with lambda :)

C#

string str  = "ELSPending(250)";
string str2 = "Work In Progress(10)";

Func<String, String> getContentBetweenBracketsFrom = Input => {
    return Input.Split(new char[] { '(', ')' }).ElementAt(1);
};

Console.WriteLine(getContentBetweenBracketsFrom(str));
Console.WriteLine(getContentBetweenBracketsFrom(str2));

Really a ton of possible solutions...

Hi sheeniwas,
Try this, it might help you.

C#

string str = "Work In Progress(10)";
int pos1 = str.IndexOf("(");
int pos2 = str.IndexOf(")");
int lenth = pos2 - pos1;
string newstr = str.Substring(pos1+1, lenth-1);

newstr will give you 10 in this case
If it is helpfull please mark it as answer.

Regards
SUNIL

best way is to use regular expressions.

C#

string str="ELSPending(250)";
Regex regex = new Regex(".*\((.*\))");
Match matching=regex.Match(str);
string value;
if(matching.Success)
{
 value=matching.Groups[1].Value;
}

Hi, try to use this:

C#

string str = ELSPending(250);
string strOutput = str.Split(new char[] { '(', ')' })[1];

string str2 = Work In Progress(10);
string str2Output = str2.Split(new char[] { '(', ')' })[1];
