C# equivalent of C++ SomeString[3] = "a"

[wade2462]

I am coming from c++ and its nice STL. In C++ I could do this

<include> string

...
...
int nMyInt = 5;
string sMyString;
sMyString[5] = "b";

Ive tried this approach in c# but doing this way gives me this errorProperty or indexer 'string.this[int]' cannot be assigned to -- it is read only

And I understand the error... is there anyway to do this in C#??

String is immutable (constant/readonly)object. Its value cannot be modified once it has been created.

Use StringBuilder class (It's mutable object).

StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
sb.Append("HeleoWorld");
sb[3] = 'l';
Console.WriteLine(sb);
