Get first three letters from every string in C#
The following are our strings in a list −
List<object> list = new List<object> { "keyboard", "mouse", "joystick", "monitor" };
To use the first 3 letters, use substring method and use it under the Linq Select method.
IEnumerable<string> res = list.AsQueryable() .Cast<string>() .Select(str => str.Substring(0, 3));
Example
using System; using System.Linq; using System.Collections.Generic; class Demo { static void Main() { List<object> list = new List<object> { "keyboard", "mouse", "joystick", "monitor" }; // getting first 3 letters from every string IEnumerable<string> res = list.AsQueryable() .Cast<string>() .Select(str => str.Substring(0,3)); foreach (string str in res) { Console.WriteLine(str); } } }
