I have one string name
message = “5x-2=18”
and I want to create substring or array by this
mesArray[0] = 5
mesArray[1] = x
mesArray[2] = -
…
this has function?
how can I make it?

irb(main):001:0> mesArray = “5x-2=18”.split “”
=> [“5”, “x”, “-”, “2”, “=”, “1”, “8”]

You have that already in your String:
irb(main):001:0> message = “5x-2=18”
=> “5x-2=18”
irb(main):002:0> message[0].chr
=> “5”
irb(main):003:0> message[1].chr
=> “x”
irb(main):004:0> message[2].chr
=> “-”
I am suspecting though that what you really want is a parser for
expressions. A simplistic version could look like this:
irb(main):005:0> message.scan %r{\d+|\w+|[-+=]}
=> [“5”, “x”, “-”, “2”, “=”, “18”]
If you want to properly process expressions with brackets etc. you
need a more complex solution.
