[Solved] How to convert char array into string for DateTime.Parse? [closed]

by


Consider this:

var date = "11252017";
var arrDate = date.ToArray();
var strDate = arrDate[0] + arrDate[1] + "https://stackoverflow.com/" +
              arrDate[2] + arrDate[3] + "https://stackoverflow.com/" +
              arrDate[4] + arrDate[5] + arrDate[6] + arrDate[7]; // 98/25/2017

Notice that:

  • '1' + '1' = 98* ⇒ char + char = int
  • 98 + "https://stackoverflow.com/" = "98/" ⇒ int + string = string
  • "98/" + '2' = "98/2" ⇒ string + char = string

The fix:

var dt = DateTime.Parse("" +
                        arrDate[0] + arrDate[1] + "https://stackoverflow.com/" +
                        arrDate[2] + arrDate[3] + "https://stackoverflow.com/" +
                        arrDate[4] + arrDate[5] + arrDate[6] + arrDate[7]);

*ASCII representation:

  • '1' in decimal is 49
