How can I convert comma separated string into a List

Question

string tags = \"9,3,12,43,2\"

List TagIds = tags.Split(\',\');

This doesn\'t work cause the split method returns a string[]

Answer 1

It's simple. First split the string. Trim blank space present after comma(,). Then use system defined ToList()

string inputText = "text1, text2"

To remove the space after ',' and convert this comma separated text to List

List resultList = (inputText.Split(',')).Select(t => t).ToList();
