C# Basic String Manipulation

string forename, surname;
forename = "James";
surname = "Shrimpton";

//Allows you to format a string in a convenient way
Console.WriteLine("FORENAME:{0} SURNAME:{1}", forename, surname);

//Outputs the length of a string
Console.WriteLine(forename.Length);

//Outputs the characters in the 5th position (index from 0)
Console.WriteLine(forename[4]);

//The most Pythonic way to reverse a string
string reverse = string.Join("",surname.ToCharArray().Reverse().ToArray());
Console.WriteLine(reverse);

//Converts a string to upper and lower case
Console.WriteLine(reverse.ToUpper());
Console.WriteLine(reverse.ToLower());

//Single line way of emulating 'String.Title()'
reverse = System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture.TextInfo.ToTitleCase(reverse.ToLower());
Console.WriteLine(reverse);

Console.ReadLine();
