Converting a sentence string to a string array of words in Java

Question

I need my Java program to take a string like:

\"This is a sample sentence.\"

and turn it into a string array like:

{\"this\         


        

Answer 1

Most of the answers here convert String to String Array as the question asked. But Generally we use List , so more useful will be -

String dummy = "This is a sample sentence.";
List wordList= Arrays.asList(dummy.split(" "));
