Python convert string to array of chars

To convert a string into an array (or list) of characters in Python, you can use the list() function. Here’s how

text = "Hello String"
char_array = list(text)
print(char_array)

['H', 'e', 'l', 'l', 'o']

Alternatively, you can use a list comprehension:

# Define the string
text = "Hello, World!"

# Use a list comprehension to create a list of characters
char_array = [char for char in text]

# Print the result
print(char_array)

If you run this code, char_array will contain each character from text as a separate element, including spaces, punctuation, or special characters. Here’s what the output will look like:

['H', 'e', 'l', 'l', 'o', ',', ' ', 'W', 'o', 'r', 'l', 'd', '!']
