[Tutor] parsing a blank-separated string into a list

[Eugene Leitl]

Assuming, I have a string like this (produced by the JME applet,
encoding a molecule I entered):

10 11 C 9.13 -8.85 C 10.34 -8.15 C 7.92 -8.15 C 10.34 -6.75 C 7.92 -6.75 C
8.43 -3.89 C 9.83 -3.89 C 8.00 -5.23 C 10.26 -5.23 C+ 9.13 -6.05 1 2 2 1 3
1 2 4 1 3 5 2 4 10 2 5 10 1 6 7 1 6 8 1 7 9 1 8 10 1 9 10 1

And want to turn it into a list like this:

[10, 11, C, 9.13 ... ]

How do I do it?

jmelist = map(None, jmevalue) produces

[1, 0, 1, 1, C, ...], whereas I want the blank-separted atoms.

Is there an idiom for that? (I mean, it's of course possible to do it by
hand, but it's not Python Zen).
