Does somebody know how to ignore the rest of a string after a certain word?

So I want to make a command for a Discord Bot. The problem is that I want him to react to the command, but after the command is a sentence like: "#oracle Can I get rich?" something like this but it does not react to the command because of the sentence. I can`t remove the sentence because the command would be useless without it. This is the current code: Random random = new Random(); string[] oracle = new string[] { "Yes!", "No!", "Maybe!" }; commands.CreateCommand("Oracle").Do(async (e) => { await e.Channel.SendMessage("The answer is: " + oracle[random.Next(2)] ); }); Does anyone know how to solve this? Thanks for every answer ^^

You can use if condition statement for checking the word and when you get it you can use the substring method

Not sure if this is what you are after? But have you tried the contains for strings? { Random rnd1 = new Random(); string[] Answers = { "Yes", "No", "Maybe"}; string sometext = Console.ReadLine(); bool yesno = sometext.Contains("Oracle"); if (yesno) { Console.WriteLine(Answers[rnd1.Next(2)]); Console.ReadLine(); } else { Console.WriteLine("Whatever"); Console.ReadLine(); } Hope this helps, if not please post your answer just interested to know.
