string[] words = line.Split(new[] { " " }, StringSplitOptions.None);
string word = "";
int ctr = 0;
foreach (String s in words)

if (s.Length > ctr)
{
word = s;
ctr = s.Length;
}

Hello!
My request is someone to explain this code to me!
I know for what is used for , but i can't grasp the Split Method.

Answer 1

Your Split() method splits (or breaks) the string 'line' from where the whitespaces are, because of the { " " }

There are 10 whitespaces in the string 'line' and hence the array 'words' is an array of 10 elements (including "Write", "a", "C#", "Sharp", ...)

Now with the foreach loop, you check the string of largest length in 'words' array (i.e. "following" - with a length of 9)

Answer 2

It specifies whether an array element that contains an empty string is included in the returned array.

None is used in order to invoke the default behaviour of the Split method, which is to return an array of both empty substrings and substrings that aren't empty.

Answer 3

And for what is StringSplitOptions. None?

Reallyy Thanks!
