asp.net core split a string in two strings

Question

Ok, my next challenge is to split a string into two other strings. I  see how to split a string but how do I get the two string separately

 

string test = Mercedez-Benz

string[] testSplit= test.Split("- "); 

 

but now, how do I get

 

string1 = Mercedez;

string2 = Benz;

 

What if string2 is int? Can I transform it to int with Int32.Parse?
