split

The split function allows you to split a string into a list based on a specified pattern. It's similar to the split method for strings, but with more powerful pattern matching capabilities.

re.split(pattern, string, maxsplit=0)

• pattern: The regular expression pattern to split the string by.
• string: The string to be split.
• maxsplit: Optional. The maximum number of splits to perform. The default value is 0, which means no limit on the number of splits

import re

text = "one, two, three, four"
pattern = ", "

result = re.split(pattern, text)

print(result)  # Output: ['one', 'two', 'three', 'four']

In the above example, we used the split function to split the string text wherever there is a comma followed by a space. The result is a list of the split substring
