JAVA classes/constructors question

[csgirl504]

Homework Statement

I just have a quick question and hope I can ask it clearly. If I am writing a constructor for a class that takes in one value as an argument, but the value is two words, how can I extract the first and second word?

For example, if I wrote a class called Name and my constructor looked like this:

Name(String firstLast)

And the value sent in was John Smith

How would I extract John and store it in its own variable? Is this even possible?

Hi csgirl504!

The java String class has a method called split() that can do that.
