How to split() a delimited string to a List<String>

string.Split() returns an array - you can convert it to a list using ToList():

listStrLineElements = line.Split(',').ToList();

Note that you need to import System.Linq to access the .ToList() function.

Either use:

List<string> list = new List<string>(array);

or from LINQ:

List<string> list = array.ToList();

Or change your code to not rely on the specific implementation:

IList<string> list = array; // string[] implements IList<string>

Include using namespace System.Linq

List<string> stringList = line.Split(',').ToList();

you can make use of it with ease for iterating through each item.

foreach(string str in stringList)
{

}

String.Split() returns an array, hence convert it to a list using ToList()
