Getting a number out of a string

I'm trying to extract single digit number from a string. t[1] = '06897' I want to get the 7, 9,8 6 seperated out to use but can't find a way to split out the single characters. Thanks -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: Getting a number out of a string

You can index into a string: s = '06897' s[2] '8' You can also turn each character into an integer, in various ways: [int(c) for c in s] [0, 6, 8, 9, 7] map(int, s) [0, 6, 8, 9, 7] Jeff pgpDMq5e3RucB.pgp Description: PGP signature -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
