</div>A string has a method split(); that may help you.<br>
In your case, where you want either a space or a comma as a separator, it depends whether both can be used at the same time. If not, you can check for the occurrence of one or the other separator and run split() with the correct separator. If both can occur in the same line, you may want to use the regex module instead: re.split()<br>
</blockquote><div><br></div><div>No need for the 're' module. Even in the case where both can be used together, you can still just use string methods: </div><div><br></div><div>>>> s</div><div>'12, 13 14'</div>
<div>>>> s.replace(',', '').split(' ')</div><div>['12', '13', '14']</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">
