Splitting strings from a list

-----------------------------------

I need a little help, very confused.

I have a List and I need to get at the stuff inside the list so I can split it. I know how to split strings. I'm just not sure how to split the strings in a list. I tried splitting the List, my program doesn't like that. I've tried moving it to a string using iterators but all the commas got lost. 

Any help is very appreciated. Thank you.

I'm not sure I understand entirely. What are you trying to get out of the List  ? What do you need it for?

If you need to retrieve a given String from the list, you can just use listName.get(index) to retrieve the String at index from the list. Indicies start from zero.

The listNam.get() actually helps a lot. The book I'm looking at doesn't have that in it for some reason. Thank you, the was essentially a breakthrough. Thanks.

You can consult the javadoc on the List interface in order to see what's available to all the Collections using that interface:

Here's the docs on String, should have whatever else you're looking for:
