In C#, we use the IsSeparator() character method to check if a specified character is categorized as a separator.
Even in a string, we can check if a character is a separator by passing the index position of the character in the string to the IsSeparator() method.
A separator can be a space separator, line separator, or paragraph separator.
IsSeparator(Char)
// for character in a string
IsSeparator(String, Int32)
Char: The character to check.
String: This string contains a character we want to check.
Int32: The index position of a character in a string that we want to check.
This method returns a Boolean value. It returns true if the character specified is a separator. Otherwise, it returns false.
In the example below, we’ll look at how to use the IsSeparator() method on characters and strings. We’ll also check whether the specified characters are separators or not.
// using Systemusing System;// create classclass SeparatorChecker{// main methodstatic void Main(){// create characterschar c1 = ' ';char c2 = '\u0020';// create stringsstring s1 = "hello world";string s2 = "c#";// check for separatorsbool a = Char.IsSeparator(c1);bool b = Char.IsSeparator(c2);bool c = Char.IsSeparator(s1, 5); // 6th positionbool d = Char.IsSeparator(s2, 1); // 2nd position// return valuesConsole.WriteLine(a);Console.WriteLine(b);Console.WriteLine(c);Console.WriteLine(d);}}
From the code above, all characters specified are separators, except the string s2 character at index position 1, which is #. Hence, they all return true, except for s2.
