Idiom #259 Split on several separators

Build the list parts consisting of substrings of the input string s, separated by any of the characters ',' (comma), '-' (dash), '_' (underscore).

parts = s.split( Regexp.union(",", "-", "_") )
var parts = s.Split(',', '-', '_');
using System.Text.RegularExpressions;
var parts = Regex.Split(s, "[,_-]");
var parts = s.split( RegExp(r"[,-_]") );
import "regexp"
re := regexp.MustCompile("[,\\-_]")
parts := re.Split(s, -1)
var parts = s.split(/[-_,]/)
import static java.util.Collections.list;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.StringTokenizer;
List<?> parts = list(new StringTokenizer(s, ",-_"));
import static java.util.regex.Pattern.quote;
String z = "[%s]".formatted(quote(",-_")),
