A small code snippet how to get the trailing number from a string.
For example Test1 returns 1, Test1245 returns 1245. If no trailing number is found, it returns null.
/// <summary>
/// Gets the trailing number from string, for example "Test 1904" returns 1904
/// "Test" returns null
/// </summary>
/// <param name="foo">the string</param>
/// <returns></returns>
public static int? GetTrailingNumberFromString(string foo)
{
string sValue = null;
for (var i = foo.Length - 1; i >= 0; i--)
{
var regex = new Regex(@"^\d$");
if (regex.IsMatch(foo[i].ToString()))
sValue = foo[i] + sValue;
else
break;
}
if (sValue != null)
return Convert.ToInt32(sValue);
return null;
}
