The split function will break up a string according to a separator and return the separated parts. The format is:

  split( /separator/, $string );

For example,

  $line = "Aki,1,1,0";
  @line_items = split( /,/, $line );    # gives ("Aki", "1", "1", "0")

  $line = "Ben,0,,0";
  @line_items = split( /,/, $line );    # gives ("Ben", "0", "", "0")
