Compare string with character in C#

Question

suppose there is a string like this

string temp2 = "hello";
char[] m = { 'u','i','o' };

Boolean B = temp2.Compare(m);

I want to check if the string contains my array of character or not? I am trying but it is not taking.On compiling the message

temp2.Compare(m) should be String type

is coming. Means it follows string.compare(string); I hope it is not the way there should be some way to do that.

edit//

I have Corrected the line String.Compare return the Boolean Value

If what you want to determine is whether the string contains any of the characters in your array, you can use the string.IndexOfAny function.

bool containsAny = temp2.IndexOfAny(m) >= 0;
