You cannot do that, since a list is a set of strings; you will need to use a loop.

Solution 1

You need a loop of some kind - either explicit like foreach, for, or while; or implicit as with a Linq query:

C#

string findEm = "raj, kumar, csd";
List<string> matches = new List<string>() {"raj", "ASDF", "EJSDA", "ARHS"};
IEnumerable<string> found = findEm.Split(", ").Intersect(matches);
