Python’s .split()
method lets you divide a string into a list of substrings based on a specified delimiter. By default, .split()
separates at whitespace, including spaces, tabs, and newlines. You can customize .split()
to work with specific delimiters using the sep
parameter, and control the amount of splits with maxsplit
.
By the end of this video course, you’ll understand that:
- You split a string by spaces in Python using
.split()
without arguments. - Python’s
.split()
method can split on custom delimiters when you pass a character or string as an argument. - You limit splits using
maxsplit
to control the number of substrings Python extracts. re.split()
uses regular expressions for splitting strings based on complex patterns.
