c# - How to reverse a string

Reverse a String
The String represents text as a sequence of UTF-16 code units. The String is a sequential collection of characters that is used to represent text. The String is a sequential collection of System.Char objects.

The following .net c# tutorial code demonstrates how we can reverse a String object. So, in this .net c# tutorial code we will reverse String characters such as if a String instance contains the text ‘Yellow’ then we will reverse it as ‘wolleY’. It means we will rearrange the character’s position of a String instance from last to first and so on.

To reverse a String object, at first we will convert the String instance into a Char array. Then we reverse the elements of the Char array using the .net Array built-in method. Finally, we will create a new instance of the String object from the reversed Char Array object.

The String ToCharArray() method copies the characters in this instance to a Unicode character Array. The String ToCharArray() method returns a Unicode character Array whose elements are the individual characters of this instance. If this instance is an empty string then the returned Array is empty and has a zero length. So using this String ToCharArray() method we convert the String instance to a Char Array object.

The Array Reverse() method reverses the order of the elements in a one-dimensional Array or in a portion of the Array. The Array Reverse(Array) method overload reverses the sequence of the elements in the entire one-dimensional Array. So, using this Array Reverse() method we can reverse the order of elements in an Array.

The String String(Char[]) constructor initializes a new instance of the String class to the Unicode characters indicated in the specified character Array. So we can create an instance of a String object from the reversed Char Array. Finally, in this way, we reversed a String instance.

Restricting Jetpack Compose TextField to Numeric Input Only

Jetpack Compose has revolutionized Android development with its declarative approach, enabling developers to build modern, responsive UIs more efficiently. Among the many components provided by Compose, TextField is a critical building block for user input. However, ensuring that a TextField accepts only numeric input can pose challenges, especially when considering edge cases like empty fields, invalid characters, or localization nuances. In this blog post, we'll explore how to restrict a Jetpack Compose TextField to numeric input only, discussing both basic and advanced implementations. Why Restricting Input Matters Restricting user input to numeric values is a common requirement in apps dealing with forms, payment entries, age verifications, or any data where only numbers are valid. Properly validating input at the UI level enhances user experience, reduces backend validation overhead, and minimizes errors during data processing. Compose provides the flexibility to implement ...

jetpack compose - TextField remove underline

Compose TextField Remove Underline The TextField is the text input widget of android jetpack compose library. TextField is an equivalent widget of the android view system’s EditText widget. TextField is used to enter and modify text. The following jetpack compose tutorial will demonstrate to us how we can remove (actually hide) the underline from a TextField widget in an android application. We have to apply a simple trick to remove (hide) the underline from the TextField. The TextField constructor’s ‘colors’ argument allows us to set or change colors for TextField’s various components such as text color, cursor color, label color, error color, background color, focused and unfocused indicator color, etc. Jetpack developers can pass a TextFieldDefaults.textFieldColors() function with arguments value for the TextField ‘colors’ argument. There are many arguments for this ‘TextFieldDefaults.textFieldColors()’function such as textColor, disabledTextColor, backgroundColor, cursorC...

jetpack compose - Image clickable

Compose Image Clickable The Image widget allows android developers to display an image object to the app user interface using the jetpack compose library. Android app developers can show image objects to the Image widget from various sources such as painter resources, vector resources, bitmap, etc. Image is a very essential component of the jetpack compose library. Android app developers can change many properties of an Image widget by its modifiers such as size, shape, etc. We also can specify the Image object scaling algorithm, content description, etc. But how can we set a click event to an Image widget in a jetpack compose application? There is no built-in property/parameter/argument to set up an onClick event directly to the Image widget. This android application development tutorial will demonstrate to us how we can add a click event to the Image widget and make it clickable. Click event of a widget allow app users to execute a task such as showing a toast message by cli...
