c# split multiple characters code example

Example 1: c# split on multiple characters

string tests = "abc][rfd][5][,][.";
string[] reslts = tests.Split(new char[] { ']', '[' }, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries);

Example 2: c# replace multiple characters

You could use Linq's Aggregate function:

string s = "the\nquick\tbrown\rdog,jumped;over the lazy fox.";
char[] chars = new char[] { ' ', ';', ',', '\r', '\t', '\n' };
string snew = chars.Aggregate(s, (c1, c2) => c1.Replace(c2, '\n'));
Here's the extension method:

public static string ReplaceAll(this string seed, char[] chars, char replacementCharacter)
{
    return chars.Aggregate(seed, (str, cItem) => str.Replace(cItem, replacementCharacter));
}
Extension method usage example:

string snew = s.ReplaceAll(chars, '\n');
