Remove Furthest Right Character In String

[frank]

How do I remove the furthest right (last) character in a string in C#?

Hi:

// **** not tested code
stringvar.Remove( stringvar.Length -1 , 1 );

Hope this help,

Evidently

stringvar.Remove( stringvar.Length -1 , 1 );

Strings are immutable, so you need something like:

stringvar = stringvar.Remove (stringvar.Length-1, 1);

Hi Jon,

Evidently

I'm pretty confident that the code will run fine

Strings are immutable, so you need something like:

stringvar = stringvar.Remove (stringvar.Length-1, 1);

Well, you will need that if you intend to assign it to the same variable,
but otherwise you would do something like other_string_var =
stringvar.Remove (stringvar.Length-1, 1);

So it's all a question of what you want to do with the string

Cheers,

But I agree with you on something, I should have make clear the whole
assignation sentence

Thanks,
