Pluralize

string string.Pluralize(int number, string? pluralized = null)

• Takes a string and pluralizes it based on the number provided.

var item = "apple";
var plural = item.Pluralize(2);
Console.WriteLine(plural); // apples

string IEnumerable<object>.Pluralize(string nonPluralized, string? pluralized = null)

• Takes a collection of objects and pluralizes a string based on the number of objects in the collection.

// Multiple items in a collection results in a pluralized string
var itemsMultiple = new List<string> { "item1", "item2", "item3" };
var plural = itemsMultiple.Pluralize("item");
Console.WriteLine(plural); // items

// A single item in a collection results in a singular string
var itemsSingle = new List<string> { "item1" };
var singluar = itemsSingle.Pluralize("item");
Console.WriteLine(singluar); // item

string IEnumerable<string>.JoinComma()

• Joins a collection of strings with a comma and space.

var items = new List<string> { "one", "two", "three" };
var result = items.JoinComma(); // one, two, three

string string.KeepAlpha()

• Keep letters only.

// Arrange
var input = "a1!b2@c3#.d4$ e5%";
var result = input.KeepAlpha(); // abcde

string string.KeepNumeric()

• Keep numbers only.

// Arrange
var input = "a1!b2@c3#.d4$ e5%";
var result = input.KeepNumeric(); // 12345

string string.KeepNumericAndPeriod()

• Keep numbers and periods only.

// Arrange
var input = "a1!b2@c3#.d4$ e5%";
var result = input.KeepNumericAndPeriod(); // 123.45

string string.KeepAlphaNumeric()

• Keep letters and numbers only.

// Arrange
var input = "a1!b2@c3#.d4$ e5%";
var result = input.KeepAlphaNumeric(); // a1b2c3d4e5

string string.KeepAlphaNumericAndSpace()

• Keep letters, numbers, and spaces only.

// Arrange
var input = "a1!b2@c3#.d4$ e5%";
var result = input.KeepAlphaNumericAndSpace(); // a1b2c3d4 e5

string string.RemoveSymbols(char[]? exceptions = null)

• Remove symbols from a string, except any exceptions provided.

// Arrange
var input = "a1!b2@c3#.d4$ e5%";
