c# - Filter array of string and get only matching ones with searched string -

i have array of string , want filtered array contains strings match searched string.

string[] myvalues = {"school.report1", "school.report2", "school.report3", "house.report1", "house.report2"}; string myfilter = "school"; string[] filteredvalues = myvalues.filter(myfilter); // or similar 

filteredvalues must contains only: "school.report1", "school.report2", "school.report3".

-- edit --

i prefer non-linq approach if possibile. otherwise know question can answered solution proposed here: filter array in c#.

if can't use linq can still use array.findall:

string[] filteredvalues = array.findall(myvalues, s => s.contains(myfilter));  

or maybe want keep strings first token(separated dot) school:

string[] filteredvalues = array.findall(myvalues, s => s.split('.')[0] == myfilter);
