How do I split a string into individual words and store those words onto an array?

Answer 1

You can split a string into a list ( array's name in Python ), using a separator character:

"thing,trick,stuff".split(",") # output: [ "thing", "trick", "stuff" ]

If you have sentences usually space is used as separator of words:

words = "A sentence, usually, is composed of words...".split(" ")
print(word[1])

... wil output "sentence," so you need maybe to do a treatment to your collected words if you don't want punctuation or whatever...

Another point: the list generated could contains many times the same word: if you want a list of unique words, transform your splitted text ( the word list ), into a set ( and as is immutable -- and unordered -- transform it again in list if you need to modify it ):

uniques_words = set(words)
new_editable_list = list(uniques_words)

Answer 2

I like this question. I've been having the problem with the same.
I've tried something like this
string a;
a.Substring(); or a.Remove
but I'm still trying to find a better way to deal with it
