String Split into separate Strings in python

Question

I want to split "Onehundredthousand" to "one" "hundred" "thousand" using python. How can I do that?

Answer 1

You can use a string's partition method to split it into 3 parts (left part, separator, right part):

"onehundredthousand".partition("hundred")
# output: ('one', 'hundred', 'thousand')

Answer 2

>>> s = "Onehundredthousand"
>>> s.replace('hundred', '_hundred_').split('_')
['One', 'hundred', 'thousand']

This will only work on the given string.
