C# Append at last line a character on all then one by one?

I'm making console c# app that actually takes all lines from text1 and append to it in the end of each line a text that is ".php?" or ".html? and these texts are also lines from text2, I want to print the first one in text2 in the end of each line in text1. Then take the second one in text2 and do the same Until it finishes text2?
Here's my code:
string[] resultConfig = File.ReadAllLines("keywords.txt");
string[] readParameters = File.ReadAllLines("param.txt");
for (int i = 0; i < readParameters.Length; i++)
{
for (int x = 0; x < resultConfig.Length ; x++)
{
resultConfig[x] = resultConfig[x] + readParameters[i];
Console.WriteLine(resultConfig[x]);
}
}
OUTPUT:
**
keyboards.php?.html?.asp?
karachi.php?.html?.asp?
keychain.php?.html?.asp?
in khobar.php?.html?.asp?
lebanon.php?.html?.asp?
lights.php?.html?.asp?
london.php?.html?.asp?
must have.php?.html?.asp?
**
**
WHAT IT SHOULD BE:

karachi.php?
keychain.php?
in khobar.php?
lebanon.php?
lights.php?
london.php?
must have.php?
keyboards.html?
karachi.html?

.html?

Your problem is this line resultConfig[x] = resultConfig[x] + readParameters[i];. In this line you change your string in resultConfig[x] and since you're using a nested loop, this happens for every line in your *param.txt` file.
In order to write you desired result in the console try this code instead:
string[] resultConfig = File.ReadAllLines("keywords.txt");
string[] readParameters = File.ReadAllLines("param.txt");
for (int i = 0; i < readParameters.Length; i++)
{
for (int x = 0; x < resultConfig.Length ; x++)
{
string line = resultConfig[x] + readParameters[i];
Console.WriteLine(line);
}
}

You keep adding the parameter to the config and you should change the order of the loops and not change the value in the array.
Something like this:
string[] resultConfig = File.ReadAllLines("keywords.txt");
string[] readParameters = File.ReadAllLines("param.txt");
for (int x = 0; x < resultConfig.Length ; x++)
{
for (int i = 0; i < readParameters.Length; i++)
{
Console.WriteLine(resultConfig[x] + readParameters[i]);
}
}

It appears you want to save all these results in the resultConfig array, but you can't just add more items to an array than it was initialized with - you have to resize it first using Array.Resize(ref resultConfig, resultConfig.Length * readParameters.Length).
However, even then it will be a little tricky to append to the first set of items and then add new items for the additional parameters (it can be done if that's really necessary).
Instead I would create a new List<string> to save the results, and leave the initial arrays as they are:
string[] resultConfig =
{
"keyboards",
"karachi",
"keychain",
"in khobar",
"lebanon",
"lights",
"london",
"must have"
};
string[] readParameters = {".php?", ".html?", ".asp?"};
var allCombinations = new List<string>();
for (int i = 0; i < readParameters.Length; i++)
{
for (int x = 0; x < resultConfig.Length; x++)
{
allCombinations.Add(resultConfig[x] + readParameters[i]);
Console.WriteLine(resultConfig[x] + readParameters[i]);
}
}

C# WFA - How to make a string list sort in the same positions as a sorted integer list

I am trying to make a high score system for a quiz game I have made. I have got all the scores and their names to read in, sort the scores and put them in rich text boxes (one for scores, one for their names). After I used .Sort() on the integer list (scores), the scores were in the correct order but the names (string list) no longer matched up with the scores.
Here is my code:
public partial class frmhighScore : Form
{
public frmhighScore()
{
InitializeComponent();
this.StartPosition = FormStartPosition.CenterScreen;
this.Name = "High Score";
}
string[] contains;
string[] scorenames;
List<int> scores = new List<int>(){ };
List<string> names = new List<string>(){ };
private void highScore_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
scores.Clear();
names.Clear();
scorenames = File.ReadAllLines(AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory + "scorenames.txt");
foreach (string line in scorenames)
{
gameClass.scorenames.Add(line);
}
for (int x = 0; x < gameClass.scorenames.Count(); x++)
{
contains = gameClass.scorenames[x].Split(':');
names.Add(contains[0]);
scores.Add(Convert.ToInt32(contains[1]));
}
scores.Sort();
scores.Reverse();
for (int a = 0; a < scores.Count; a++)
{
}
for (int y = 0; y < names.Count(); y++)
{
richTextBox1.Text += names[y];
richTextBox1.Text += Environment.NewLine;
}
for (int z = 0; z < scores.Count(); z++)
{
richTextBox2.Text += scores[z];
richTextBox2.Text += Environment.NewLine;
}
}
}
gameClass.scorenames is a string list in my class which is used to read in the details from the text file. All ofther variables are local.
richTextBox1 is for the names and richTextBox2 is for the scores
Here is a screenshot of what the form currently looks like:
Current high score form
And here is the text file that I am reading in from (scorenames.txt):
r:6
bob:10
So as you can see, the names are not matched up with the sorted scores
So my final question is, how would I make it so that the names (bob / r) match up with their scores r is 4, bob is 10?
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

I think you just need to re model your display entity to bundle both Name and Score together. You might need to change your code somewhat similar to below snippet (I haven't taken care of new line format though)
public class DisplayCard
{
public int Score { get; set; }
public string Name { get; set; }
}
List<DisplayCard> ScoreCard = new List<DisplayCard>();
for (int x = 0; x < gameClass.scorenames.Count(); x++)
{
contains = gameClass.scorenames[x].Split(':');
var name = contains[0];
var score = Convert.ToInt32(contains[1]);
ScoreCard.Add(new DisplayCard { Name = name, Score = score });
}
var sortedCard = ScoreCard.OrderBy(o => o.Score).ToList();
foreach (var card in sortedCard)
{
richTextBox1.Text += card.Name;
richTextBox2.Text += card.Score;
/* take care of new line logic*/
}

You might create objects for each player which includes their score. Then use LINQ to sort them by the score, which will then retain the association with their name: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb534966.aspx

trouble reading and writing to a file c#

I am currently trying to take a file of words that are not in alphabetical, re-order the words so that they are in alphabetical order (I am trying to use a non-built in sort method), and then write the newly ordered list into a new txt file(one that must be created). For example, lets say there is only five words in the txt file that are as follows "dog bat apple rabbit cat". I would want the program to resort these in alphabetical order, and then create a txt file that saves that order. As of right now, the program will iterate through the txt file, but will not save the re-ordered list into the new txt file. What is saved into the new file is this... "System.Collections.Generic.List`1[System.String]"
Truth be told, I am not very savvy with c# yet, so i apologize if my structuring or coding is not very well. The original file that is un-ordered is called "jumbled english FILTERED.ALL.txt", and the file I am trying to write to is called "english FILTERED.ALL.txt".
static void Main(string[] args)
{
// declaring integer for minimum.
int min = 0;
// declare the list for the original file
List<string> LinuxWords = new List<string>();
List<string> lexicalOrder = new List<string>();
// read the text from the file
string[] lines = System.IO.File.ReadAllLines("jumbled english FILTERED.ALL.txt");
string line = string.Empty;
// seperate each word into a string
//foreach (string line in lines)
//{
//add each word into the list.
//LinuxWords.Add(line);
//}
for (int i = 0; i < lines.Length - 1; i++)
{
for (int j = i + 1; j < lines.Length; j++)
{
if (lines[i].Length < lines[j].Length)
{
min = lines[i].Length;
}
else
{
min = lines[j].Length;
}
for (int k = 0; k < min; k++)
{
if (lines[i][k] > lines[j][k])
{
line = lines[i].ToString();
lines[i] = lines[j];
lines[j] = line;
break;
}
else if (lines[i][k] == lines[j][k])
{
continue;
}
else
{
break;
}
}
}
}
for (int i = 0; i < lines.Length; i++)
{
Console.WriteLine("The program is formatting the correct order");
lexicalOrder.Add(lines[i]);
}
//lexicalOrder.ForEach(Console.WriteLine);
//}
//LinuxWords.ForEach(Console.WriteLine);
File.WriteAllText(AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory + "english FILTERED.ALL.txt",
lexicalOrder.ToString());
// write the ordered list back into another .txt file named "english FILTERED.ALL.txt"
// System.IO.File.WriteAllLines("english FILTERED.ALL.txt", lexicalOrder);
Console.WriteLine("Finished");
}

Assuming you mean that you don't get the list saved (if that's not the problem - please be more specific) - you need to change
lexicalOrder.ToString()
to something like
lexicalOrder.Aggregate((s1, s2) => s1 + " " + s2)

Splitting timespan when overlapping

I have multiple TXT files which represents time spans in seconds for selected portions of videos. For example, 1.23-5.45.
I want to use these time spans to take these portions of multiple videos and create a single video with all the portions.
I'm parsing all of these TXT files into an array of KeyValue pairs list:
List<KeyValuePair<Double, Double>>[] TagsOfSeconds= new List<KeyValuePair<Double, Double>>[]()
Each index of array element represents a TXT file. And each element is a a KeyValue pair list where each pair is the start-end of the seconds time span.
My requirement is to parse these TXT files and split the time spans to segments of 5 seconds (5 is an example, the segment value will be provided by the user) and order the segments with priority to segment with the smallest value (happened before other segments) and if two are equal, take the one that is first in the TagsOfSeconds array.
Here is an illustration. Segment order is what I'm trying to achieve:
I created the following structure to keep track of the portions parsed from the text files:
public struct PortionInfo
{
public Double Start, End;
public int VideoIndex, PortionIndex;
public Double PortionLength;
}
Here is my code for ordering the loaded segments based on the start time span and TXT file index:
private void OrderVideoPortions(List<KeyValuePair<Double, Double>>[] videoPortionslist)
{
videoPortionsOrder = new List<PortionInfo>(); //videoPortionsOrder.Sort()
for(int i=0;i< videoPortionslist.Length;i++)
{
for (int j = 0; j < videoPortionslist[i].Count; j++)
{
PortionInfo currentPortionInfo = new PortionInfo();
currentPortionInfo.VideoIndex = i;
currentPortionInfo.PortionIndex = j;
currentPortionInfo.Start = videoPortionslist[i][j].Key;
currentPortionInfo.End = videoPortionslist[i][j].Value;
currentPortionInfo.PortionLength = currentPortionInfo.End - currentPortionInfo.Start;
videoPortionsOrder.Add(currentPortionInfo);
}
}
videoPortionsOrder.Sort(SortAscending);
}
public static int SortAscending(PortionInfo p1, PortionInfo p2)
{
int returnVal = p1.Start.CompareTo(p2.Start);
if (returnVal == 0)
{
return p1.VideoIndex.CompareTo(p2.VideoIndex);
}
else
return returnVal;
}
Now I have to generate the segments from the sorted list.
Can any one help me please to achieve this? I just want help or guidance on determining the intersections and segments.

I modified the PortionInfo Structure to have constructor and a bool Active that is set automatically to true when the structure is created.
private void CreateFinalSegments(List<PortionInfo> orderedVideoPortions)
{
int segmentSize = int.Parse(_txtTimeSegments.Text);
int extrSegmentDuration = int.Parse(_txtExtraDurationAllowed.Text);
PortionInfo currentPortion = new PortionInfo();
finalSegments = new List<PortionInfo>();
if (_txtExtraDurationAllowed.Text == "0" || _txtTimeSegments.Text == "0")
{
return;//Check that still needs to be handled
}
else
{
for (int i=0;i< orderedVideoPortions.Count;i++)
{
if (orderedVideoPortions[i].Active)
{
if (orderedVideoPortions[i].PortionLength <= (segmentSize + extrSegmentDuration))
{
finalSegments.Add(orderedVideoPortions[i]);
currentPortion = orderedVideoPortions[i];
currentPortion.Active = false;
orderedVideoPortions[i]=currentPortion ;
}
else
{
currentPortion = orderedVideoPortions[i];
finalSegments.Add(new PortionInfo(currentPortion.Start, currentPortion.Start+ segmentSize, currentPortion.VideoIndex, currentPortion.PortionIndex));
currentPortion.Start += segmentSize;
currentPortion.PortionLength = currentPortion.End - currentPortion.Start;
orderedVideoPortions[i] = currentPortion;
orderedVideoPortions.Sort(SortAscending);
i = 0;//Note: Needs to be rechecked because --i should be enough.
}
}
}
Application.DoEvents();
_lblStatus.Text = "Video segments generated. Now Working on generating final video";
}
}

How do i filter and remove lines that don't contain the specifc word/s?

This is the method for now:
private void WordsFilter(List<string> newText)
{
for (int i = 0; i < newText.Count; i++)
{
for (int x = 0; x < WordsList.words.Length; x++)
{
lineToPost = ScrollLabel._lines[i];
if (!lineToPost.Contains(WordsList.words[x]))
{
newText.Remove(lineToPost);
}
}
}
}
newText is List and WorldsList.words is string[]
I loop over the lines in newText and loop over the words and i want to check this way:
First line in newText to loop over all the words if none of any of the words exist in this line remove the current line and the next line after it.
For example in newText if line in index 0 is : Hello everyone
And line in index 1 is: created at 12/3/2002
Then remove index 0 and index 1
Index 2 is empty like a space empty line so do not remove it.
Then index 3 to loop over all the words if nonoe of the words exist in line in index 3 remove index 3 and index 4 .
And so on...
How can i do it ?

Here a working example. I try to didnt change the logic of your code :
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
public class Program
{
public static void Main()
{
List<string> list = new List<string>() {"truc", "I love toto", "next", "chocolate", "tata tata", "", "something"};
WordsFilter(list);
}
private static void WordsFilter(List<string> newText)
{
string[] WordsList = new string[] { "toto", "tata" };
for (int i = 0; i < newText.Count; i++)
{
for (int x = 0; x < WordsList.Length; x++)
{
if (newText[i].Contains(WordsList[x]))
{
newText.RemoveAt(i);
if (i + 1 < newText.Count)
newText.RemoveAt(i);
}
}
}
// print
foreach(var item in newText)
{
Console.WriteLine(item);
}
}
}
You should check how works foreach loop and LINQ.
