Easiest way to parse “querystring” formatted data

Question

With the following code:

string q = \"userID=16555&gameID=60&score=4542.122&time=343114\";

What would be the easiest way to par

Answer 1

Pretty easy... Use the HttpUtility.ParseQueryString method.

Untested, but this should work:

var qs = "userID=16555&gameID=60&score=4542.122&time=343114";
var parsed = HttpUtility.ParseQueryString(qs);
var userId = parsed["userID"]; 
//  ^^^^^^ Should be "16555".  Note this will be a string of course.
