It would print all the comma separated values regardless of comma.

you didn't get my question. I mean if i want only "hello" from this string what code i should write. I want to split first portion from the string not other portion.

First of all, you cannot parse string.
And second of all, your problem is regarding splitting the string.
See the MSDN documenatation[^].
Some of examples are given over here[^].

And solution towards your problem is,

C#

string str = "d,j,k,l,k,";
string newStr = str.Split(',')[0].ToString();
