Question

I need to replace a word that starts with %.

For example Welcome to home | %brand %productName

hoping to split on words begining with % which would give me { brand, productName }.

My regex is less than average so would appreciate help with this.

Nothing wrong with string.split approach, mind you, but here’s a regex approach:

string input = @"Welcome to home | %brand %productName";
            string pattern = @"%\S+";
            var matches = Regex.Matches(input, pattern);
            string result = string.Empty;
            for (int i = 0; i < matches.Count; i++)
            {
                result += "match " + i + ",value:" + matches[i].Value + "\n";
            }
            Console.WriteLine(result);
