I have following strings :
String? hello = "(1.2,1.5 | 5)"
String? hi = "(2.3,3.2 | 9)"
Now I want to get
var newhello1 = 1.2,1.5
var newhello2 = 5
and
var newhi1 = 2.3,3.2
var newhi2 = 9
How to extract those text from that entire strings?

You can use the indexOf function combined with the substring to get the substrings as follows
var newhello1 = hello.substring(hello.indexOf('(') + 1, hello.indexOf('|')).trim(); //Use Trim() to get rid of any extra spaces
var newhello2 = hello.substring(hello.indexOf('|') + 1,hello.indexOf(')')).trim();
print(newhello1); //1.2,1.5
print(newhello2); //5

It will be a string only

okay, I'll edit the answer to keep the relevant part only.
List<String> myformatter(String? data) {
if (data == null) return [];
List<String> ls = data.split("|");
for (int i = 0; i < ls.length; i++) {
ls[i] = ls[i].replaceAll("(", "").replaceAll(")", "").trim();
}
return ls;
}
main() {
String? hello = "(1.2,1.5 | 5)";
String? hi = "(2.3,3.2 | 9)";
final helloX = myformatter(hello);
print(helloX[0]); //1.2,1.5
print(helloX[1]); //5
final hiX = myformatter(hi);
print(hiX[0]); //2.3,3.2
print(hiX[1]); //9
}
newhello1will be a list?
