Remove First and Last Character

Write a C# Sharp program to create a new string without the first and last character of a given string of length at least two.

Visual Presentation:

Sample Solution:-

C# Sharp Code:

using System; // Import the System namespace which contains fundamental types and base classes

namespace exercises // Define a namespace called 'exercises'
{
    class Program // Define a class named 'Program'
    {
        static void Main(string[] args) // The entry point of the program
        {
            // Output the result of the test function with different strings as arguments
            Console.WriteLine(test("Hello")); // Test with the string "Hello"
            Console.WriteLine(test("Hi"));    // Test with the string "Hi"
            Console.WriteLine(test("Python")); // Test with the string "Python"
            Console.ReadLine(); // Wait for user input before closing the console window
        }

        // Function definition of test function that takes a string 's1' and returns a string
        public static string test(string s1)
        {
            // Get a substring of 's1' starting from index 1 to the end of the string,
            // then, get a substring of that result starting from index 0
            // The length of the second substring is equal to the original length of 's1' minus 2
            return s1.Substring(1).Substring(0, s1.Length - 2);
        }
    }
}

Sample Output:
