Question

string inputString = "1/10 EP Sp'arrowha?wk XT R;TR 2.4GHz Red"; //Characters Collection: (';', '\', '/', ':', '*', '?', ' " ', '<', '>', '|', '&', ''') string outputString = "1 10 EP Sp arrowha wk XT R TR 2.4GHz Red"; 

Answer 1

Full disclosure of the following code:

• He was not tested
• I probably messed up the character that slipped into new Regex(...) ;

• I really don't know C #, but I can use Google for "C# string replace regex" and on MSDN .

   Regex re = new Regex("[;\\/:*?\"<>|&']"); string outputString = re.Replace(inputString, " "); 

---

Here is the correct code:

 string inputString = "1/10 EP Sp'arrowha?wk XT R;TR 2.4GHz R\\ed"; Regex re = new Regex("[;\\\\/:*?\"<>|&']"); string outputString = re.Replace(inputString, " "); // outputString is "1 10 EP Sp arrowha wk XT R TR 2.4GHz R ed"
