REGEX stands for Regular expression.
Using regex, we can replace the characters,numbers with a string.
Syntax:
Regex regex = new Regex("[Regular expression]");
output = regex.Replace("input_string", "substitution_string");
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Text.RegularExpressions;
namespace ConsoleApplication1
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
string filename = "My name is C-SHARP 007; (got it !)";
//find all characters that are letters
Regex regex = new Regex("[^a-zA-Z0-9]");
filename = regex.Replace(filename, "$");
Console.WriteLine(filename);
}
}
}
Output:
My$name$is$C$SHARP$007$$$got$it$$$
