Interesting, I've had the opposite experience. I keep trying to perform
range operations and C# doesn't have them. Slicing is of course ever
more desired.
That isn't to say C# is bad, but
if(string.IsNullOrEmpty(str))
vs
if(str.empty)
keeps throwing me off.
Or as in Ruby on Rails:
if str.blank?
end
"str" is conisderd blank if:
* it's nil (null)
* empty (its length is 0)
* it only contains whitespce
BTW, it works on all objects, not just strings. For arrays it will check
the length as well, but for other objects it will just check for nil.
