Hi Robby,
    Here's another variant of the solution,

for $x in 1 to string-length($stringVal) return substring($stringVal, $x, 1)

But the solution with string-to-codepoints(..) etc is equally good.


The solution given by Michael Kay:

    for $c in string-to-codepoints($s) return codepoints-to-string($c)

can be much more efficient (linear time complexity) than the above
expression that calculates substring N times. (O(N^2) in the absence
of a good optimizer).


Cheers,
Dimitre.

Hi guys,

Probably the stupidest question since a while but what would be the 
preferred way to split a word into a sequence of letters  ;-)

Cheers,
Robby
