Split comma-separated text.
Split a simple comma-separated string into individual Java values.
import java.util.*;
import java.nio.file.*;
import java.nio.charset.StandardCharsets;
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
System.out.println(Arrays.toString("red,green,blue".split(",")));
}
}Expected output EXAMPLE
[red, green, blue]
Details
Save as Main.java. Compile with javac Main.java, then run java Main. Uses only the Java standard library; tested with OpenJDK 21.
This is not a CSV parser: quoted commas require a CSV library.
Tested on Ubuntu 24.04.5 LTS · · openjdk 21.0.12.1 2026-08-18 · openjdk-21-jdk-headless 21.0.12.1+1-1~24.04.4
Test inputs, results and environment
The exact published code ran in a dedicated Linux test container with prepared inputs. Unprivileged snippet process, external networking disabled, read-only root filesystem, and a fresh temporary working directory. Fixtures and output records are isolated from the application database. Testing covers this example and its stated checks, not every input, operating system, or runtime version. The Linux container shares its host's kernel; this is not a native Windows test.
