Using C# to check if string contains a string in string array

Question

I want to use C# to check if a string value contains a word in a string array.

For example:

string stringToCheck = "text1text2text3";

string[] stringArray = { "text1", "someothertext" };

if (stringToCheck.Contains(stringArray)) // Is one of the items?
{

}

How can I check if the string value for stringToCheck contains a word in the array?

Here is how you can do it:

string stringToCheck = "text1";
string[] stringArray = { "text1", "testtest", "test1test2", "test2text1" };
foreach (string x in stringArray)
{
    if (stringToCheck.Contains(x))
    {
        // Process...
    }
}

Maybe you are looking for a better solution... Refer to Anton Gogolev's answer which makes use of LINQ.
