title: Java split on ^ (caret?) not working, is this a special character?
body: <p>In Java, I am trying to split on the <code>^</code> character, but it is failing to recognize it. Escaping <code>\^</code> throws code error.</p>
  
  <p>Is this a special character or do I need to do something else to get it to recognize it?</p>
  
  <pre><code>String splitChr = "^";
  String[] fmgStrng = aryToSplit.split(splitChr); 
  </code></pre>
