Converting a Comma Separated String to a List of Strings in Python [duplicate]

Question

I am trying to convert a long string to a list of strings for each item separated with comma.

list = ['05-19.scl, 05-22.scl, 05-24.scl, 06-41.scl']

to :

desired_list= ['05-19.scl', '05-22.scl', '05-24.scl', '06-41.scl']

This is very basic if you don't mind me saying. But desired_list = list[0].split(", ") — alani

>>> listObj = ['05-19.scl, 05-22.scl, 05-24.scl, 06-41.scl']
>>> a = [x.split(',') for  x in listObj][0]
>>> a
['05-19.scl', ' 05-22.scl', ' 05-24.scl', ' 06-41.scl']
