Convert string with multiple values into array

Question

I have the following string:

var group = "one+two+three";

Each value in the string is separated by a +, and I wanted to add them separately in an array, so It could then become:

var group_array = ["one", "two", "three"];

How can I do this?

While you received several answers already, this is really a thing you should have been able to find with a simple web search, as explained in ["how to ask questions on Stackoverflow"](http://stackoverflow.com/help/how-to-ask) — Mike 'Pomax' Kamermans, Jun 05 '15 at 17:16

Use split() like

var group = "one+two+three";
var groupArray = group.split('+');
console.log(groupArray);

You can simply split() it:

var groupArray = "one+two+three".split("+");
// -> will give you ["one", "two", "three"];

Try
