String.split()

String.split

Syntax


myString.split(delimiter);


Arguments delimiter The character used to delimit the string.


Description Method; splits a String object by breaking the string wherever

the specified delimiter argument occurs, and returns the substrings in an

array. If no delimiter is specified, the returned array contains only one

element-the string itself. If the delimiter is an empty string, each

character in the String object becomes an element in the array.



If the delimiter is an empty string, each character in the String object

becomes an element in the array.

this doesn't work!

text="hello you";

letter=new array();

letter=text.split("");

returns "hello you" exactly as letter=text.split();


Am I mistaking?
