How to remove non-numeric from a string but retain decimal in C#
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ height:90px;width:728px;box-sizing:border-box;
}
I am using Selenium(C#) on NUnit Framework and is getting a string from UI as $4850.19.
I want to compare above string with the value from backend (DB) to assert they are equal.
I am using a below method to parse my dollar amount from front-end, but the issue is that is also stripping the decimal point; and obviously the comparison with backend is failing.
Method used:
public static string RemoveNonNumeric(string s)
{
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
for (int i = 0; i < s.Length; i++)
if (Char.IsNumber(s[i]))
sb.Append(s[i]);
return sb.ToString();
}
How to strip out any '$' or ',' but keep '.' in the value?

Isn't it as simple asreturn s.Replace("$", String.Empty)?

Or possiblyreturn s.Substring(1);?

Those methods won't remove the','character, though...

You can also use the decimal.Parse method to parse a string formatted as currency into a decimal type:
string input = "$4,850.19";
decimal result = decimal.Parse(input, NumberStyles.Currency);
Console.WriteLine($"{input} => {result}");
Output:

Another way to do it if you don't want to go the decimal.Parse route is to simply return only numeric and '.' characters from the string:
public static string RemoveNonNumeric2(string s)
{
return string.Concat(s?.Where(c => char.IsNumber(c) || c == '.') ?? "");
