Need help in Hashtable implementation
- by rafael
Hi all, i'm quite a beginner in C# , i tried to write a program that extract words from an entered string, the user has to enter a minimum length for the word to filter the words output ... my code doesn't look good or intuitive, i used two arrays countStr to store words , countArr to store word length corresponding to each word .. but the problem is i need to use hashtables instead of those two arrays , because both of their sizes are depending on the string length that the user enter , i think that's not too safe for the memory or something ?
here's my humble code , again i'm trying to replace those two arrays with one hashtable , how can this be done ?
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Collections;
namespace ConsoleApplication2
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
int i = 0 ;
int j = 0;
string myString = "";
int counter = 0;
int detCounter = 0;
myString = Console.ReadLine();
string[] countStr = new string[myString.Length];
int[] countArr = new int[myString.Length];
Console.Write("Enter minimum word length:");
detCounter = int.Parse(Console.ReadLine());
for (i = 0; i < myString.Length; i++)
{
if (myString[i] != ' ')
{
counter++;
countStr[j] += myString[i];
}
else
{
countArr[j] = counter;
counter = 0;
j++;
}
}
if (i == myString.Length)
{
countArr[j] = counter;
}
for (i = 0; i < myString.Length ; i++)
{
if (detCounter <= countArr[i])
{
Console.WriteLine(countStr[i]);
}
}
Console.ReadLine();
}
}
}
