using System.Text;

What is unique about the StringBuilder is that when you call members of this type, you are

directly modifying the object’s internal character data (and is thus more efficient), not obtaining a

copy of the data in a modified format. When you create an instance of the StringBuilder, you can

supply the object’s initial startup values via one of many 

constructors. If you are new to the topic of

constructors, simply understand that constructors allow you to create an object with an initial state

when you apply the new keyword. Consider the following usage of StringBuilder:

static void FunWithStringBuilder()

{

Console.WriteLine("=> Using the StringBuilder:");

StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder("**** Fantastic Games ****");

sb.Append("\n");

sb.AppendLine("Half Life");

sb.AppendLine("Beyond Good and Evil");

sb.AppendLine("Deus Ex 2");

sb.AppendLine("System Shock");

Console.WriteLine(sb.ToString());

sb.Replace("2", "Invisible War");

Console.WriteLine(sb.ToString());

Console.WriteLine("sb as {0} chars.", sb.Length);

Console.WriteLine();

}

Here we have constructed a StringBuilder set to the initial value "**** Fantastic Games

****". As you can see, we are appending to the internal buffer, and are able to replace (or remove)

characters at will. By default, a StringBuilder is only able to hold a string of 16 characters or less;

however, this initial value can be changed via an additional constructor argument:
