.NET Regular Expressions
Provides detailed information about .NET regular expressions, including language elements, regular expression behavior, and examples.
Basic String Operations
Describes string operations provided by the xref:System.String?displayProperty=nameWithType and xref:System.Text.StringBuilder?displayProperty=nameWithType classes, including creating new strings from arrays of bytes, comparing string values, and modifying existing strings.
Type Conversion in .NET
Explains the techniques and rules used to convert types using .NET.
Formatting Types
Provides how to use the base class library to implement formatting, how to format numeric types, how to format string types, and how to format for a specific culture.
