Split string to list python

python Share on :

Python has a built-in function called split() that can be used to split a string into a list of substrings. The split() function takes a string and a delimiter as arguments and returns a list of substrings. The delimiter can be any character, such as a space, a comma, or a tab.

my_str = "This is a string"
print(my_str.split())

comma_str = "Apple, Banana, Orange"
print(comma_str.split(", "))
