how to transform string a array?

This is a twitter, I need transform the string a an array, how to do make?, because I need to iterate through each element separately...

var twitter = 'RT Informacion sobre algo en comun @opmeitle #demodelor union J, http://bit.ly/a12, opmeitle@email.com';

I need something like that.

var result = ['RT, Informacion, sobre, algo, en, comun, @opmeitle, #demodelor, union, J, http://bit.ly/a12, opmeitle@email.com']

for ( i in result) { console.log(result[i]) } // output >> 
RT
Informacion
sobre
...

use, javascript or nodeJs

node.js

Answer 1

It seems to me like you need something like this:

var string = "hi coldfusion stackoverflow";
var array = string.split(' ')

This code splits the string into an array through the argument passed into .split which in this case is a space, " ". When .split is executed, all the spaces (because we passed in a space) are removed and new elements(?) of an array are created in between the spaces.

Answer 2

// This splits result into words -- /\s+/ is a regex
// that detects one or more whitespace characters
var twitt = 'foo bar baz quux';

var result = twitt.split(/\s+/);
// result is now ['foo', 'bar', 'baz', 'quux']

for (var i = 0; i < result.length; i++) {
    console.log(result[i]);
}

Avoid using for in loops to iterate over arrays.
