Is String Numeric

Turns any string backwards. If you input "Test" it gives out "tseT". Hope it's useful.
The snippet shows how to use it.

The modus operandi for this is similar to that taken by PHP's implementation of such functions. It's comparitively memory-intensive, but is much faster than running a whole bunch of tests.
Basically, you set a mask -- an array of 256 null bytes -- and set those that correspond to characters you wish to trim. Then, rather than having to test if a character is in the set of characters to trim(O(n), or linear time on *ws), you just test once (O(1), or unit time) to see if the byte in question is set.
And of course, to trim(), you just wrap trim() around both ltrim() and rtrim().
One point of caution: these functions trim in place, so copy strings before trimming them. (Of course, if you usually want access to both pre- and post-trimmed strings, you could always make these malloc() a new string and return a pointer to it . . . )

Generates an 88 character secure hash string for the passed in strings.

This function loads an File into an String.

This function provides the reverse of a string. It is constructed using string builder because strings in .NET are immutable, while stringbuilders are not. Therefore large strings could be slow to reverse if a regular string was used for the working value that is returned.

One of best and unknown built in string function included in .NET is String.Split(). It has come in quite handy for my in the last 2 years that I thought I'd share. Pretty basic example here...and for my first post, I thought I'd throw in a little File IO (for free of course)! This was written in .NET 2.0 and it will take little to no modification to make it work in 1.0/1.1.

Transform any basic type to string. Very handy for log messages
Usage:
int i(12);
float j(3.14);
cout
