Swift version: 5.6
You can convert a string to an array by breaking it up by a substring using the components(separatedBy:)
method. For example, you can split a string up by a comma and space like this:
let str = "Andrew, Ben, John, Paul, Peter, Laura"
let array = str.components(separatedBy: ", ")
That will return an array of six items, one for each name.
