get Contact First Name from Contact Object

Hi,

I want to get the First Name of the Contact Object. When I go to the Contact Objects Fields, they only have a field called NAME. NAME is a combination of (PreFix, First Name and Last Name). 

Is there a way to access the First Name of that conatct from apex code?

Please Help me.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Sam,

Contact FirstName directly we can access in our SOQL.

Try this query in Developer Console.

SELECT FirstName FROM Contact

Hi Sujan,
