Separate each paragraph in a list

Hi,

thanks a million

Welcome to the forum.

You should show the code you tried so far, that's much easier to build a precise answer.

You want to separate in a List. SwiftUI List ?

Let's try any way.

How are paragraphs delimited ? By a newLine character (\n) ?

If so, here is a way to do it:

let myLongText = """
Hello,
this is a text with several paragraphs.
I want to split them into distinct paragraphs.

"""

let paragraphArray = myLongText.components(separatedBy: CharacterSet.newlines)
print(paragraphArray)

In SwiftUI code, you would use as follows:

struct ContentView: View {
    let myLongText =
"""
Hello,
this is a text with several paragraphs.
I want to split them into distinct paragraphs.

"""
    @State var paragraphArray: [String] = []
    
    var body: some View {
        VStack {
            Spacer()
            List(paragraphArray, id: \.self) { line in Text("\(line)") }
            Spacer()
            Button(action: {
                paragraphArray = myLongText.components(separatedBy: CharacterSet.newlines)
            }) {
                Text("Split")
            }
        }
    }
}

And get:

If that answers your question, don't forget to close the thread by marking the answer as correct.

Otherwise, please explain the problem.
