Is it possible in Python to look at a string as a "struct". I don't
think a struct exists in python. Actually, is there something analogous
to a record. In the case of strings, suppose I have string that is
composed of sub-strings like, first_name, last-name, date_of birth,
which consists of month, day, and year, and finally SSN,
street_address, state, city, and zip_code. I'd like to access these
fields directly instead of lastname = record[38:55]. What if fields are
not just strings, but some numeric values? --
