Split string and get Second value only

Question

I wonder if it\'s possible to use split to divide a string with several parts that are separated with a comma, like this:

10,12-JUL-16,11,0

Answer 1

Use LINQ's Skip() and First() or FirstOrDefault() if you are not sure there is a second item:

string s = "10,12-JUL-16,11,0";
string second = s.Split(',').Skip(1).First();

Or if you are absolutely sure there is a second item, you could use the array accessor:

string second = s.Split(',')[1];
