EscapeString(String, String)

Escapes special characters in a string, prefixing them with a backslash.

Declaration

public static string EscapeString(string s, string charactersToEscape)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.String	s	The input string.
System.String	charactersToEscape	The characters to escape

Returns

Type	Description
System.String	The string where all occurrences of any of the characters to escape are prefixed with a backslash.

FullWidthToHalfWidth(String)

Perform full-width to half-width conversion

Declaration

public static string FullWidthToHalfWidth(string input)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.String	input

Returns

Type	Description
System.String

GenerateRandomWord(Int32, Boolean)

Generates a string which consists of random letters in the range [a-z] with the specified length.

Declaration

public static string GenerateRandomWord(int length, bool initialUpper)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.Int32	length	The length of the string to be generated.
System.Boolean	initialUpper	If true, the initial letter of the generated string will be converted to upper-case. If false, the initial letter will remain lower-case.

Returns

Type	Description
System.String	A string which consists of a random sequence of letters [a-z] with the specified length.

GetPrefixLength(String, Char[])

Declaration

public static int GetPrefixLength(string s, char[] prefixChars)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.String	s	The string
System.Char[]	prefixChars	The set of prefix characters

Returns

Type	Description
System.Int32	The length of the prefix of s which entirely consists of characters contained in prefixChars

GetSuffixLength(String, Char[])

Computes the length of the suffix of s which entirely consists of characters in suffixChars. If either of the parameters is null or empty, 0 is returned.

Declaration

public static int GetSuffixLength(string s, char[] suffixChars)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description

Converts half-width characters to full-width characters

Declaration

public static string HalfWidthToFullWidth(string input)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.String	input	single byte string, halfwidth string

Returns

Type	Description
System.String

HalfWidthToFullWidth2(String)

Declaration

public static string HalfWidthToFullWidth2(string input)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description

Returns

Type	Description
System.Boolean
