Answer 1

the given code is syntactically incorrect.

Please note that the Split(Char[]) returns string array.

here is an example to demonstrate it.

            string someStr = "balaji baskar";
            string[] strArrys = someStr.Split(' ');
            foreach (string arr in strArrys)
            {
                MessageBox.Show(arr);
                //There are two strings
                //Prints "Balaji" first
                //Prints "Baskar" second
                //Now you can use Replace function
                arr.Replace('b','B');
            }

Answer 2

Split takes characters, "'" is a string. '\'' is a character. You have to escape the apostrophe so it doesn't think it's the end of the character.

You don't have to with the comma though, you can just use ','

Answer 3

Hi Sam581,

Thank you for your post.

To apply String.Split Method, we should check the following syntax:

Split(array<Char>[]()[], Int32)
Split(array<Char>[]()[], StringSplitOptions)
Split(array<String>[]()[], StringSplitOptions)
Split(array<Char>[]()[], Int32, StringSplitOptions)
Split(array<String>[]()[], Int32, StringSplitOptions)

For more information, please check: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.string.split.aspx

Hope this helps. If you have any concern, please feel free to let me know.

Best regards,
Yichun Chen
