toList
Table of Contents
Overview
The toList function takes source text and a separator as arguments. The source text is tokenised using the separator. All tokens are then converted into a list.
Note:
- Text values punctuated by the separator will be the list's elements.
- If a separator is not provided or if the provided separator does not appear in the source text, the entire source text is returned as a single element of a list.
- If separators appear consecutively in the source text, all empty occurrences will be empty elements of the list.
Return Type
- LIST
