Pick out substrings delimited by whitespace:

Show the substrings with quotes:

Split a string at every --:

Split at every run of spaces:

Use string patterns:

Regular expressions:

Mixed regular expressions and string patterns:

Split into substrings separated by either delimiter:

Insert a value at the position of a delimiter:

Include the delimiters in the output:

StringSplit automatically threads over lists of strings:

Split a DNA sequence by a particular substring:

Use a wildcard in the pattern to split the biomolecular sequence:

The "N" is a degenerate letter only in biomolecular sequences:

Split only on literal degenerate letters using Verbatim:

All substrings, including zero‐length ones at the beginning or end:

Make a nested array by applying StringSplit twice:

A base random DNA string:

Text analysis with some right and left context:

Use StringSplit to find all occurrences of the word "power":

Compute part of the left and right contexts in which each word occurs:

List extensions of files in a directory and its subdirectories:

Splitting at whitespace is equivalent to cases of non-whitespace sequences:

StringSplit with a rule is equivalent to StringReplace:

A null delimiter splits at every character:

Using StringSplit on a comma-separated values string:

In many cases Import and ImportString provide direct functionality:

StringSplit by default splits only at whitespace:

This splits into words:

Another way to split into words:
