// Example #1: StringBuilder Append(string) - most common way stringbuilder is used |
// Adds the specified string or string representation of the specified value to the end |
// of the string |
//**************************************************************************************** |

sb.Append("First Line"); |
sb.Append("<br />"); |
sb.Append("Second Line"); |

//Append(string, startIndex, count) |
//**************************************************************************************** |
// Example #2: StringBuilder Append(string, startIndex, count) |
// Adds a substring of the specified string, starting with the specified |
// position and having the specified length, to the end of the string |
//**************************************************************************************** |
StringBuilder sb2 = new StringBuilder(); |
Label2a.Text = "Example #2: StringBuilder Append(string, startIndex, count)"; |
sb2.Append("The dog and cat "); |
sb2.Append("love to fight and play", 0, 13); |
//take love to fight and add to end of prev string |
Label2.Text = sb2.ToString(); |
//Insert(index, string[, count]) |
//**************************************************************************************** |
// Example #3: StringBuilder Insert(index, string[, count]) |
// Inserts the specified string or a string representation of the specified |
// value at the specified position in the string the specified number of |
// times. If the count is ommitted, a single copy of the string is inserted. |
//**************************************************************************************** |
StringBuilder sb3 = new StringBuilder(); |

sb3.Append("This is the initial sentence"); |
sb3.Insert(20, "and modified ", 2); |
Label3.Text = sb3.ToString(); |
//Remove(startIndex,count) |
//**************************************************************************************** |
// Example #4: StringBuilder Remove(startIndex,count) |
// Removes the specified number of characters from the string starting at |
// the specified position |
//**************************************************************************************** |
StringBuilder sb4 = new StringBuilder(); |
Label4a.Text = "Example #4: StringBuilder Remove(startIndex,count)"; |
sb4.Append("This is the initial sentence"); |
sb4.Remove(20, 8); |
Label4.Text = sb4.ToString(); |
//Replace(oldString,newString [,startIndex][,count]) |
//**************************************************************************************** |
// Example #5: StringBuilder Replace(oldString,newString [,startIndex][,count]) |
// Replaces all occurences of the old string with the new string starting |
// at the specified position and continuing for the specified number of characters. |
// If you omit startIndex, it starts at beginning |
// If you omit count, it does entire string |
//**************************************************************************************** |
StringBuilder sb5 = new StringBuilder(); |
Label5a.Text = "Example #5: StringBuilder Replace(oldString,newString [,startIndex][,count])"; |
