I Split on 'your grave'
A collection of code samples in various programming languages demonstrating how to split a string into a collection of substrings using the phrase 'your grave' as a delimiter. It's hosted on GitHub so if your favorite language isn't supported, you can always submit a pull request.

Role: programmer, designer

No tests?

Thumbs up for making something interesting :-)

(I get good results from Stackoverflow when I google "split string X" for each language X that you've listed so far, e.g. Split string with delimiters in C, How to split a string in Haskell?.)

No Scala yet -- maybe I'll make a PR (stackoverflow's answer)

I made this because the name made me giggle when I thought of it. Let that be the metric by which you gauge the seriousness of this project. (The stupidinternettricks tag isn't there for nothing.)

That being said, I find myself continuing to add new languages when the mood strikes, and I'd be happy to accept any additions.

Thanks for the kind words.
