Question

I need to find values inside this string:

10days25hours15minutes

I need get the numbers of days, hours and minutes, but the string can change, like this:

10d25h15m

Answer 1

Assuming the input string consists of three decimal numbers each terminated by one or more non-digits, you can use the following regular expression:

var match = Regex.Match("10days25hours15minutes", @"(\d+)\D+(\d+)\D+(\d+)\D+");

var result = new TimeSpan(
    days: int.Parse(match.Groups[1].Value),
    hours: int.Parse(match.Groups[2].Value),
    minutes: int.Parse(match.Groups[3].Value),
    seconds: 0);

// result == {11.01:15:00}
