Check if a character is a vowel or consonant?

Question

Is there a code to check if a character is a vowel or consonant? Some thing like char = IsVowel? Or need to hard code?

case ‘a’:
case ‘e’:
case ‘i’:
case ‘o’         


        

Answer 1

You can use the following extension method:

using System;
using System.Linq;

public static class CharExtentions
{
    public static bool IsVowel(this char character)
    {
        return new[] {'a', 'e', 'i', 'o', 'u'}.Contains(char.ToLower(character));
    }
}

Use it like:

'c'.IsVowel(); // Returns false
'a'.IsVowel(); // Returns true
