String.ParseCsvToList Extension Method

A useful extension method to System.String. Given a comma-seperated list in a string, it'll return a generic List of type string, with each value occupying its own index.

public static List<string> ParseCsvToList(this string source)
{
    var valuesArray = source.Split(new char[] {','});
    return valuesArray.Select(value => value.Trim()).ToList();
}
