Predetermined characters

13y1.5kVisual Basic .NET

I wish to know is there any code in C# to pick up predetermined characters from random input.

Suppose we say predetermined characters are "Address"

Random console input is 3545325Adggfdgdfgd3!@$@@#rsfssefas&*acs.

Program will realise there are A, d, d, r, e, s, and s letters in it and pick up and return it.

Hi Maha,

How about doing it this way:
-------------------------------------------------------------------

 string inputStr = "3545325Adggfdgdfgd3!@$@@#rsfssefas&*acs";
           string checkStr = "Address";
           List<char> FoundChars = new List<char>();
             if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(inputStr))
           {
               foreach (char c in checkStr)
               {
                   if (inputStr.IndexOf(c) > -1)
                   {
                       FoundChars.Add(c);
                       continue;
                   }             
              }
                 foreach (char c in FoundChars)
               {
                   Console.Write(c);
               }
 
           }
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hope it helps :)

I did a small modification in your program so it fulfills my expectation. Thank you for your help.

Modification is character must be the i/p from the keyboard. Which is
string inputStr = Console.ReadLine();
