How to convert string without quotation marks to the python array?

Question

Is it possible in Python to convert a raw string divided by commas, eg

tt0099700,tt0096061,tt0118688,tt0120784

into a Python array/list?

Such string is in loop as a variable row[i] .

Thanks for any help.

Answer 1

Try:

input_list = 'tt0099700,tt0096061,tt0118688,tt0120784'
new_list = input_list.split(',')

Output of new_list :

['tt0099700', 'tt0096061', 'tt0118688', 'tt0120784']
