Hi,

I have a value in string like

C#

string str="stat-1-1-2:ttf_3l2-1: 0:35:11:34";

I am expecting the output is "1-1-2";

Regards,
Basha

Is this a one time thing? Can 1-1-2 be, for example, 11-11-12 or even 1001-1001-1002? Is it fixed length? Can other variables in the string change?

Solution 2

Use the documentation[^] on MSDN to learn how to split strings and extract specific details from them. Learn it well as you will need it throughout your programming career. Don't learn it, and your career is likely to be very short.

I voted 5, but your last sentence is a great exaggeration.

This will have output stat-1-1-2, but the OP was asking for 1-1-2.
The author seems to have accepted this answer though, so I guess it's what he wanted...

okthen you write
string x=str.split(':')[0].SubString(0,5).toString();
