And in absence of any information about what exactly are the constraints on the input, and what is the difficulty you're trying to overcome (and indeed no information about what you tried already), I am going with the simplest solution: zlist = [z[0:1], z[1:4], z[4:5]] It looks like you're doing some DNA analysis, and I would guess that all these strings will be 5 characters, I'm sure my solution will work fine. _______________________________________________ BangPypers mailing list BangPypers@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/bangpypers
