Hi guys i was trying a lot to retrieve some other strings from one main string.
string src = "A~B~C~D";
How can i retrieve separately the letters? Like:
string a = "A";
string b = "B";
string c = "C";
string d = "D";

you could use Split(char c) that will give you back an array of sub strings seperated by the ~ symbol.
string src = "A~B~C~D";
string [] splits = src.Split('~');
obviously though, unless you know the length of your string/words in advance you won't be able to arbitrarily put them in their own variables. but if you knew it was always 4 words, you could then do
string a = splits[0];
string b = splits[1];
string c = splits[2];
string d = splits[3];

Try this one. It will split your string with all non-alphanumeric characters.
string s = "A~B~C~D";
string[] strings = Regex.Split(s, @"\W|_");

Please try this
string src = "A~B~C~D"
//
// Split string on spaces.
// ... This will separate all the words.
//
string[] words = src .Split('~');
foreach (string word in words)
{
Console.WriteLine(word);
}

You can do:
string src = "A~B~C~D";
string[] strArray = src.Split('~');
string a = strArray[0];
string b = strArray[1];
string c = strArray[2];
string d = strArray[3];

string src = "A~B~C~D";
string[] letters = src.Split('~');
foreach (string s in letters)
{
//loop through array here...
}

Oops - need to type faster I think. 5th answer posted by the time I pressed submit :)
Consider...
string src = "A~B~C~D";
string[] srcList = src.Split(new char[] { '~' });
string a = srcList[0];
string b = srcList[1];
string c = srcList[2];
string d = srcList[3];

string words[]=Regex.Matches(input,@"\w+")
.Cast<Match>()
.Select(x=>x.Value)
.ToArray();
\w matches a single word i.e A-Z or a-z or _ or a digit
+is a quantifier which matches preceding char 1 to many times

@JeroenvanLangen he has edited his question ...his initial question was to select all the words from string.

omg, thank you guys :O So many answers in such a short time. WOW !! I've never seen something like this :))
I like to do it this way:
List<char> c_list = new List<char>();
string src = "A~B~C~D";
char [] c = src.ToCharArray();
foreach (char cc in c)
{
if (cc != '~')
c_list.Add(cc);
}
~and what have you tried
