Hello,

Does anyone have any tips on replacing every character in a string with "something1" except for "something2"? For example:

Given string "xxAyxx", replace every character which is not an 'x' with a 'g'.

Start: "xxAyxx"
Result: "xxggxx"

Thanks

Never mind, found it:

System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Replace("xxAyxx", "[^x]", "g")
