In Python programming, string is a commonly used data type. String splitting is a common operation that splits a string into multiple substrings based on a certain delimiter and returns a list. In Python, we can use the split() method to implement string splitting.
The syntax format of the split() method is as follows:
str.split(sep=None, maxsplit=-1)
Among them, the parameter sepis optional and is used to specify the delimiter. If no separator is specified, spaces are used by default. The parameter maxsplitis also optional and is used to specify the maximum number of splits. If not specified, the string will be split into as many substrings as possible by default.
Below we use some examples to explain the usage of split() method in detail.
