Non destructive split in Ruby

I want to split the string "hello+world-apple+francisco-rome", into ["hello", "+world", "-apple", "+francisco", "-rome"].

String::split actually loses the splitting element. Anyone can do that?

You can do it with this simple regular expression:

"hello+world-apple+francisco-rome".scan(/[+\-]?\w+/)
