String from byte array doesn't get trimmed in C#?

Question

I have a byte array similar to this (16 bytes):

71 77 65 72 74 79 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00

I use this to convert it to a string and tr

Answer 1

Trim by default removes only whitespace, where whitespace is defined by char.IsWhitespace.

'\0' is a control character, not whitespace.

You can specify which characters to trim using the Trim(char[]) overload:

string result = Encoding.ASCII.GetString(data).Trim(new char[] { '\0' });
