how to separate parts of a string

[BeepBeepLettuce]

so i have a long string of data and the different parts that i need are separated by commas
something like "Beep,Boop,1234567,12,23,34,45,56,67,78"

i want to break this string into an array of strings
array(1) "Beep"
array(2) "Boop"
array(3) "1234567"
array(4) "12"
array(5) "23"
etc

i know how to do this using for loops but i was wondering if there was an easier way to separate everything between the commas
kind of like .split in java
