I have a string like this

string s = " IF(condition){ return true; } else { return false} ";

Now I want to execute this string and want result according to the condition like..

If condition is true then return true otherwise false.

Condition would be like (expression == 3) or (expression == "3") or (expression == '3') etc.

And one more thing I am getting this string from html parsing from browser that means i have to execute this like a string i have no other option..

How can i do this in c#

By creating your own compiler :) – Fabio Nov 03 '16 at 06:18
You need to dynamically compile them first, – Niyoko Nov 03 '16 at 06:18
a string should be treated as a string don't go against the norm – Anonymous Duck Nov 03 '16 at 06:19
If you can change your language inside string to javascript, then you can use [Javascript.Net](https://github.com/JavascriptNet/Javascript.Net) – Niyoko Nov 03 '16 at 06:20

What you trying to achieve by doing that? May be there is another way? – SᴇM Nov 03 '16 at 06:20
Well, what will be the expected value for `condition`, any samples? – sujith karivelil Nov 03 '16 at 06:22
If all your strings will look like that then you could only focus on `condition` instead of building the whole if statement. `IF(condition){ return true; } else { return false}` is equal to `return condition` – Tadija Bagarić Nov 03 '16 at 06:23
A bit of useful code or a hint would be highly appreciable ... @NiyokoYuliawan and everyone .. Thanxx – Uwais Nov 03 '16 at 06:23
Are you getting that string as a return result from any other API call? Or are you coding it by yourself? – Pramod Nov 03 '16 at 06:23
