I'm trying to find a way to split a string by its letters and numbers but I've had luck.
An example:
I have a string "AAAA000343BBB343"
I am either needing to split it into 2 values "AAAA000343" and "BBB343" or into 4 "AAAA" "000343" "BBB" "343"
Any help would be much appreciated
Thanks
Here is a RegEx approach to split your string into 4 values
string input = "AAAA000343BBB343";
string[] result = Regex.Matches(input, @"[a-zA-Z]+|\d+")
.Cast<Match>()
.Select(x => x.Value)
.ToArray(); //"AAAA" "000343" "BBB" "343"
So you can use regex
For
"AAAA000343" and "BBB343"
var regex = new Regex(@"[a-zA-Z]+\d+");
var result = regex
.Matches("AAAA000343BBB343")
.Cast<Match>()
.Select(x => x.Value);
// result outputs: "AAAA000343" and "BBB343"
For
4 "AAAA" "000343" "BBB" "343"
See @fubo answer
Try this:
var numAlpha = new Regex("(?<Alpha>[a-zA-Z]*)(?<Numeric>[0-9]*)");
var match = numAlpha.Match("codename123");
var Character = match.Groups["Alpha"].Value;
var Integer = match.Groups["Numeric"].Value;
codename123. Good use of named captures, though.
