Kelvin Lawrence updated TINKERPOP-3083: --------------------------------------- Description: There are many use cases where it is helpful to be able to split an entire string into an array of characters. In other query languages, passing in a null string ('') as the parameter achieves this. I believe the Gremlin step should behave the same way. For example Current behavior {code:java} g.inject('Hello').split('') ['Hello']{code} Proposed new behavior {code:java} g.inject('Hello').split('') ['H','e','l','l','o']{code} was: There are many use cases here it is helpful to be able to split an entire string into an array of characters.
