The Modern C# Challenge

By: Rod Stephens

Overview of this book

C# is a multi-paradigm programming language. The Modern C# Challenge covers with aspects of the .NET Framework such as the Task Parallel Library (TPL) and CryptoAPI. It also encourages you to explore important programming trade-offs such as time versus space or simplicity. There may be many ways to solve a problem and there is often no single right way, but some solutions are definitely better than others. This book has combined these solutions to help you solve real-world problems with C#. In addition to describing programming trade-offs, The Modern C# Challenge will help you build a useful toolkit of techniques such as value caching, statistical analysis, and geometric algorithms. By the end of this book, you will have walked through challenges in C# and explored the .NET Framework in order to develop program logic for real-world applications.

Chapter 5. Strings

This chapter describes several problems that ask you to manipulate strings. Some are just exercises in performing string operations. Others, such as finding palindromic substrings and longest common substrings, use interesting algorithms. The remaining exercises may actually be useful for some programs.
