it wont match bcz string 1 and string2 is different

4

IndexOf is the alternative of Contains, but I’m not sure how to use it. You can try that if you have any idea

5

it wont be same example as i given it might changes dynamically

6

indexof always takes staring word right.

Hi
Apart from contains method we can use Regex method
Like this
System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.IsMatch(strinput.ToString,”(world wide technologies)”)

Cheers @brindhaS

It’s more similar to contains and even that string inside the contains method is a part of the main string then it would give us true or as false
Cheers @brindhaS

12

my assumption is it returns true only if full string matches

You mean like you want to search
Mystring2 in Mystring1
Or
Mystring1 in Mystring2

Literally searching Mystring1 in Mystring2 won’t work buddy
But in turn Mystring2 in Mystring1 will work for sure both in contains and Regex method

Cheers @brindhaS

18

Yes ,it wont work is there is some other way to do

19

I didn’t get that buddy
Would you like to search mystring2 in mystring2 again
@brindhaS

20

No Im sorry i did a mistake

mystring2.contains(mystring1)

Fine there is a possibility
Like this
System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.IsMatch(mystring2.ToString,”(?<=\W\s).*(?=\W)”)

Cheers @brindhaS
