Question by Slayerkris · Oct 08, 2013 at 01:21 PM · string.split

String Split all characters?

Hello. I'm trying to make a scrolling text that shows individual letters/symbols with a small delay.

I was thinking about :

 string[] characters = text.Split['*'];

but that does not seem to work. Is there anyway that I could split every character in a string?

Thanks,

Kris

How about

 char[] characters = text.ToCharArray();

?

Could do scrolling chars directly from the string -- no need for another array. In other words, a string already is an array of single letters.

Just use that same text[i].ToString() (or the more common ""+text[i]) conversion right in the display loop.

         text = "ThisIsATest";
         string[] characters = new string[text.Length];
         for (int i = 0; i < text.Length; i++)
         {
              characters[i] = System.Convert.ToString(text[i]);
         }

Alternatively, line 5 could be

 characters[i] = text[i].ToString();
