Hey, @Roshni,

  • You can use split() function to split a string based on a delimiter to a list of strings.
  • You can use join() function to join a list of strings based on a delimiter to give a single string.

Here goes an example which will help you to understand much better:

string = "This is a string."
string_list = string.split(' ') #delimiter is ‘space’ character or ‘ ‘
print(string_list) #output: ['This', 'is', 'a', 'string.']
print(' '.join(string_list)) #output: This is a string.
