I'm going to assume you meant to say that you're trying to split a string, not that you're trying to spit a string.  Then my next question is how do you want to split it?  

Will the split be in the same location all the time?

Will there only be one split with two output strings or are you trying to split the string into multiple parts?  Like do you want to split the string into a bunch of individual words?  

Then what do you want to do with the strings?  Maybe load each word into a table?

Please be clearer with what you are trying to do/accomplish.

Hallo thanks You to help me and yes not spit but split and i will do it like this 

 

Input_string = "abcareyougod"

Data = string.gmatch(input_string, "'and now i Will write a code in here that Will split the string  in every 3  characters or what amunt i need but in this case 3'")

while true do

  • Solution
local function splitEvery(str, n)
  local result = {}
  for i = 1, #str, n do
    local substr = str:sub(i, i + n - 1)
    table.insert(result, substr)
  end
  return result
end

print(table.unpack(splitEvery("abcdefghi", 3)))
--> abc     def     ghi

print(table.unpack(splitEvery("hello, world!", 4)))
--> hell    o, w    orld    !
local function splitHalf(str)
  local leftLen = math.ceil(#str / 2)
  return str:sub(1, leftLen), str:sub(leftLen + 1, -1)
end

print(splitHalf("abcdef"))
--> abc     def

print(splitHalf("helloworld"))
--> hello   world

print(splitHalf("programming"))
--> progra  mming
