| Description | The split() function breaks a string into pieces using a character or string as the divider. The delim parameter specifies the character or characters that mark the boundaries between each piece. A String[] array is returned that contains each of the pieces. If the result is a set of numbers, you can convert the String[] array to to a float[] or int[] array using the datatype conversion functions int() and float() (see example above). The splitTokens() function works in a similar fashion, except that it splits using a range of characters instead of a specific character or sequence. |
