Dart - Splitting of String

In Dart splitting of a string can be done with the help split string function in the dart. It is a built-in function use to split the string into substring across a common character.

Syntax:

string_name.split(pattern)

This function splits the string into substrings across the given pattern and then stores them in a list.

Splitting a string across space

Example:

// Main function
void main() {
    // Creating a string
    String gfg = "Geeks For Geeks !!";
    
    // Splitting the string
    // across spaces
    print(gfg.split(" "));
}

Output:

[Geeks, For, Geeks, !!]

Splitting each character of the string

Example:

// Main function
void main() {
    // Creating a string
    String gfg = "GeeksForGeeks";
    
    // Splitting each
    // character of the string
    print(gfg.split(""));
}

 
 Output:

[G, e, e, k, s, F, o, r, G, e, e, k, s]

Apart from the above pattern, the pattern can also be a regex. It is useful when we have to split across a group of characters like numbers, special characters, etc.

Splitting a string across any number present in it. (Using regex)

Example:

// Main function
void main() {
    // Creating a string
    String gfg = "Geeks1For2Geeks3is4the5best6computer7science8website.";
    
    // Splitting each character
    // of the string
    print(gfg.split(new RegExp(r"[0-9]")));
}

Output:

[Geeks, For, Geeks, is, the, best, computer, science, website.]
