string [] re_split(string regex, string input, int maxsplits=0)
Splits the input
string into substrings between matches of regex
.
If maxsplits
is given and not 0, it specifies the maximum number of splits to do.
NOTE: This does not match Python and other split methods as it behaves
differently with trailing delimiters. a,b,
will only split into two
strings. The regex string can be augmented with |($(?!\s))
to split
three tokens. In VEX you frequently will need \\s. In a wrangle another
escape is needed and \\\\s is required.
