> Key: TINKERPOP-3083
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-3083
> Project: TinkerPop
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: language, process
> Affects Versions: 3.7.2
> Reporter: Kelvin Lawrence
> Priority: Critical
>
> 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}
