how can I convert a string to a vector in rust?

Question

I would like to receive a:

"Hello, I would like to meet you"

and convert to:

["Hello,", "I", "would", "like", "to", "meet", "you"]

how could I make that?

There is a dedicated method for str to do this called split(). You can then use collect() to put the result in a Vec.

In your case:

fn main() {
    let original = "Hello, I would like to meet you";
    let split = original.split(' ');
    
    let vec: Vec<_> = split.collect();
    
    println!("{:?}", vec);
}
