Is there any way to split strings in objective c into arrays? I mean like this - input string Yes:0:42:value into an array of (Yes,0,42,value)?

NSArray *arrayOfComponents = [yourString componentsSeparatedByString:@":"];
where yourString contains @"one:two:three"
and arrayOfComponents will contain @[@"one", @"two", @"three"]
and you can access each with NSString *comp1 = arrayOfComponents[0];

if you want access first word:
[[string componentsSeparatedByString:@" "] objectAtIndex:0];

Try this:
NSString *testString= @"It's a rainy day";
NSArray *array = [testString componentsSeparatedByString:@" "];
