Split string without delimiters

15 New Member
Hey Guys.
If I have a string say "abcdefg" how do i split the string without delimiters.
What i need is a list containing each of the chars:
e.g. ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f', 'g']

The string.split() method wont work as it requires a delimiter within the string to split on and returns ['abcdefg'].

Just going to use it for some error checking and validation used in a wx.TextCtrl in my GUI.
Cheers.

I am looking for a function that takes in a string and splits it using a list of other strings (delimiters) and can return the delimiters as well as the extra parts of the string. I was trying the split with a regex built up of the delimiters separated by "|", but it doesn't return the delimiters which I need. The goal is an algorithm that can take a string containing html code using <ul>, <ol>, and <li> and turn it into a formated...

I am trying to use the split function to bread up lines in a file I am reading from. Some lines are working just fine, but a couple of the lines don't split up the way I would have thought.

Hi All, I'm trying to split a string on every character. The string happens to be a representation of a hex number. So, my regex expression is (). Seems simple, but for some reason, I'm not getting the results I expect. Dim SA as string() Dim S as string S="FBE"

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
