You have to start to build your own - fixed - library of extension methods...
Skipper: We'll fix it. Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this? Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.
Yup. Phones getting bigger, having to press a button to see the time on your watch, having to write your own extensions... The seventies are back, for certain.

Don't give me workarounds when all I want to do is complain. :mad: I know it's super simple to write one myself, but the point is I should not have to. Seems pretty basic.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.
Why not just ref the VB assembly and... oh, I can't keep it up. :-)

It's that it was taken away because some moron decided for you that you didn't need it; that's what gets the teeth grinding.

Not sure C# ever had it. :^)

Guys, you are aware that features are unimplemented by default[^], right?
-- "My software never has bugs. It just develops random features."
But it was implemented. I'm now recompiling everything I've ever written in C#, to insert workarounds. It's a very happy job, as I'm sure you can imagine.

Um what? Microsoft.VisualBasic. And it's still there.

On the VB tab, it gives the VB syntax:
Public Shared Function Left (
str As String,
Length As Integer
) As StringOn the C# tab, it gives the C# syntax:
public static string Left(
string str,
int Length
)I know that computery things seem complicated, Granny, but you ought to at least try to use them.

Except for the music! There is no music anymore! X|
Get me coffee and no one gets hurt!
Oh, there is, but the definition of the word "music" has changed to be something to do with money for nothing.

Maybe...

You're still missing what namespace the function is in. :doh:

Don't bother me with petty details when I'm in panic mode! Looks like I've always used Substring, anyway. Strange, that. It feels like I've used Left much more recently than I've used VB. {Insert Sid James comment here]

That's close enough for me!

So, C# has no left method on a string? :omg: :omg: It would be so easy to add one, lazy Microsoft C# developers. So, use substring. Whoops. Nope. Errors if you give it a length that is longer than the string. I miss VB. :sigh:

You nailed it! In a few words you nailed it! Modern music is nothing and worth nothing! Now: How are we going to convince poor souls like Sander that this is true? :-D
