How to split a string into a list?

Question

I want my Python function to split a sentence (input) and store each word in a list. My current code splits the sentence but does not store the words as a list. How do I do that? def split_line(text): # split the text words = text.split() # for each word in the line: for word in words: # print the word print(words) Select the correct answer from above options

Answer 1

The following code splits the string in the text on any consecutive runs of whitespace:- words = text.split() By using the below-mentioned code you can split the string in the text on delimiter: ",":- words = text.split(",") And the words variable will be a list and it will contain the words from text split on the delimiter.
