I have a couple of strings:
Green color
Red color
color
Pink color
Now I want to remove " color
" but only when that string is found. So I want to end up with the following sequence:
Green color
Red color
Pink color
I tried some basic regexp but I am starting to think this is not possible, or am I wrong?
CodePudding user response:
This will match color
preceded by a space that is not preceded by a word boundary.
\B color

My code on a quick hand:
System.Collections.Generic.List<string> lines = str.Split(Environment.NewLine).ToList();
for(int i = 0; i < lines.Count; i )
{
if(lines[i].Trim() == "color")
{
lines.Remove(lines[i]);
i--;
}
}
System.Console.WriteLine(string.Join(Environment.NewLine, lines));
If that's string is certainly getting from file, then I have other solution
