Split string into string array of single characters

Question

I want to something as simple as turning  this is a test  into   new string     t   h   i   s       i   s       a       t   e   s   t     Would I really have to do something like  test    this is a test  Select x   gt  x ToString    ToArray      edit  To clarify  I don t want a char array  ideally I want an array of string  I don t really see anything wrong with the above code except for the fact that I would think there is an easier way

Most likely you re looking for the ToCharArray   method  However  you will need to do slightly more work if a string   is required  as you noted in your post       string str    this is a test        char   charArray   str ToCharArray        string   strArray   str Select x   gt  x ToString    ToArray      Edit  If you re worried about the conciseness of the conversion  I suggest you make it into an extension method   public static class StringExtensions       public static string   ToStringArray this string s                if  string IsNullOrEmpty s               return null           return s Select x   gt  x ToString    ToArray
