How to find whether a string array contains some part of string?
I have array like this

String[] stringArray = new [] { "abc@gmail.com", "cde@yahoo.com", "@gmail.com" };
string str = "coure06@gmail.com"

if (stringArray.Any(x => x.Contains(str)))
{
    //this if condition is never true
}

    Assuming you’ve got LINQ available:

    bool partialMatch = stringArray.Any(x => str.Contains(x));

    Even without LINQ it’s easy:

    bool partialMatch = Array.Exists(stringArray, x => str.Contains(x));

    or using C# 2:

    bool partialMatch = Array.Exists(stringArray,
      delegate(string x) { return str.Contains(x)); });

    If you’re using C# 1 then you probably have to do it the hard way 🙂
