getting 2 words from a sentence

[vivendi]

Hey, suppose i have the following sentence:

"Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit."

Now i need to split this sentence into pieces of two words. So i need the following result:

Lorem ipsum
ipsum dolor
dolor sit
sit amet
amet consectetur
consectetur adipiscing
adipiscing elit

But i'm not sure how to do this...?? Could anyone please help me out a bit with this??

This is easy.

Use the string split method to put whole sentence into single words in an array,
then just go through the array in 2-steps and pick up your words and use them as you like.

If you also want to eliminate punctuation I recommend this approach:

try
{
    string input = "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.";
    string allowedChars = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ ";
    string[] words = input.Split(new char[] {' '}, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries);
    string output = "";
    for(int i = 0; i < words.Length; i++)
    {
        if(i + 1 < words.Length)
        {
            string word = words[i] + " " + words[i+1];
            string legalWords = "";
            foreach(char c in word)
                if(allowedChars.Contains(c.ToString()))
                    legalWords += c.ToString();
            if(legalWords != "")
                output += legalWords + Environment.NewLine;
        }
    }
    Console.WriteLine(output);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
    Console.WriteLine(ex.ToString());
}
finally
{
    Console.ReadKey();
}
