ASP.NET if array has string [duplicate]

Question

I have an array with 3 items "AAA", "BBB" & "CCC"

I have a string and its value is "CCC"

I am looking for a condition that will take this string and check if its in the array.

I get the array via:

string[] departmentArray = newDepartment.Split(',');

and the string

string department = "CCC";

String.Contains could well work here.

if (newDepartment.Contains(department)) {
// the substring is in the big one.
}

Try if (departmentArray.Contains(department)) ...
