Add some useful extension methods for string manipulations in C#. Make coding more elegent, interesting and productive. string.ToBoolean(); string.ToInt(); string.RemoveSufix(string suffix); string.RemovePrefix(string prefix); string.Remove(string toBeRemoved); string.RemoveSpace(); string.RemoveWhiteSpace(); /// <summary> /// Accept string value: "true", "t", "1" as true, all others will be evaluated as false. /// </summary> /// <returns></returns> public static bool ToBoolean(this string value) { if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(value)) return false; switch (value.Trim().ToLower()) { case "true": return true; case "t": return true; case "1": return true; case "0": return false; case "false": return false; case "f": return false; case "": return false; default: return false; //throw new InvalidCastException("You can't cast that value to a bool!"); } } /// <summary> /// Convert a string to int with default value /// </summary> /// <returns></returns> public static int ToInt(this string value) { if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(value)) return 0; int.TryParse(value, out int i); return i; } /// <summary> /// Remove string suffix /// </summary> /// <param name="suffix"></param> /// <returns></returns> public static string RemoveSufix(this string value, string suffix) { if (value.EndsWith(suffix)) { value.Substring(0, value.Length - suffix.Length); } return value; } /// <summary> /// Remove string prefix /// </summary> /// <param name="prefix"></param> /// <returns></returns> public static string RemovePrefix(this string value, string prefix) { if (value.StartsWith(prefix)) { value.Substring(prefix.Length); } return value; } /// <summary> /// Remove all spaces from a string /// </summary> /// <returns></returns> public static string RemoveSpace(this string value) { return value.Replace(" ", string.Empty); } /// <summary> /// Remove all white spaces from a string, including " ", \t, \r, \n /// </summary> /// <returns></returns> public static string RemoveWhiteSpace(this string value) { return value.Replace(" ", string.Empty) .Replace("\t",…
