Hackers

OMG I love this movie for being so horrible.

They have the little video changing equipment fight…oh man.

Before you could download movies, could hack into TV stations and just get them to play what you want.

Pascal case to human readable with C# extension methods

August 2nd 2008

I needed to convert some Pascal case strings to human readable strings. Basically I have an enum containing errors, but wanted a nice way to convert them straight to messages for the exceptions that would be thrown.

Here’s how I did it.

[-]^?View Code CSHARP

public static string ToHumanFromPascal(this string s)
{
    var sb = new StringBuilder();
    var ca = s.ToCharArray();
    sb.Append(ca[0]);
    for (int i = 1; i < ca.Length - 1; i++)
    {
        char c = ca[i];
        if (char.IsUpper(c) && (char.IsLower(ca[i + 1]) || char.IsLower(ca[i - 1])))
        {
            sb.Append(' ');
        }
        sb.Append(c);
    }
    sb.Append(ca[ca.Length - 1]);
    return sb.ToString();
}
