Hi,
I have a class containing ints, strings and anything else you'd expect
to find in a class. I create a list of the class and then extract the
strings and perform a Distinct() on them. That bit is easy.
Problem is this - the strings all have something in brackets. Sometimes
the braces have a space on the inside before and after the single word
inside of them and sometimes they don't.
My LINQ query looks like this
List<string> tmp = (from m in cropTypes
let cw = m.CropName
let kw = cw.Substring(0,
cw.LastIndexOf(")") + 1)
let t = kw.IndexOf('(')
let p1 = kw.Substring(0, t)
let p2 = kw.Substring(t, (kw.Length -
1) - t + 1).Replace(" ", string.Empty)
let p3 = p1 + p2
select p3).Distinct().ToList();
This query works fine but looks inefficient. Is there a way to rewrite
this to remove any spaces inside of the braces?
Thanks
Paul

"Space," it says, "is big. Really big. You just won't believe how
vastly, hugely, mindbogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a
long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to
space, listen..."
