Question: I have a filepath say "C:\hello\hi\dotnet\abc.txt". I just want the directories from the path.

Expected Output :

```
hello
hi
dotnet

```

I have used `Path.DirectorySeparatorChar` but it doesn't work.So help me out to solve this problem.

Answer: 
You can use this function

```
IEnumerable<string> GetDirectories(string path)
{                        
    DirectoryInfo di = new DirectoryInfo(path);

    yield return di.Name;
    if (di.Parent == null)
       yield break;
    foreach (var dir in GetDirectories(di.Parent.FullName))
    {
       yield return dir;
    }           
}

```

using:

```
string path = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location;
foreach(var dir in GetDirectories(path).Reverse())
      Console.WriteLine(dir);

```
```
foreach (string s in System.IO.Path.GetDirectoryName (path).Split(System.IO.Path.DirectorySeparatorChar).Skip(1))
{
   //output
}

```
