Problem Solution:

In this program, we will create a string and then we will convert the string into an array of characters using the split() function using based on a specified character.

Program/Source Code:

The source code to convert the string into an array of characters based on the specified character is given below. The given program is compiled and executed successfully.

# Ruby program to covert the string into array 
# of characters based on specified character

str = "A#P#M#T#S#D";
arr = str.split("#");

i=0;

print "Array elements are: \n";

while(i<arr.length())
    print arr.at(i)," ";
    i = i + 1;
end

Output:

Array elements are: 
A P M T S D

Explanation:

In the above program, we created a string str initialized with "A#P#M#T#S#D". Then we used the split() function to convert the string into an array of characters based on specified characters and assigned the result to the arr variable. After that, we printed the array.
