Check if a string has at least one number in it using LINQ

Question

I would like to know what the easiest and shortest LINQ query is to return true if a string contains any number character in it.

Answer 1

"abc3def".Any(c => char.IsDigit(c)); 

Update: as @Cipher pointed out, it can actually be made even shorter:

"abc3def".Any(char.IsDigit); 

Answer 2

Try this

public static bool HasNumber(this string input) {   return input.Where(x => Char.IsDigit(x)).Any(); } 

Usage

string x = GetTheString(); if ( x.HasNumber() ) {   ... }
