Splits a multiline string into a list of lines.
|
|
|
|
- Use `str.split()` and `'\n'` to match line breaks and create a list.
|
|
- [`str.splitlines()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#str.splitlines) provides similar functionality to this snippet.
|
|
|
|
```py
|
|
def split_lines(s):
|
|
return s.split('\n')
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```py
|
|
split_lines('This\nis a\nmultiline\nstring.\n')
|
|
# ['This', 'is a', 'multiline', 'string.' , '']
|
|
```
