  • What format does `16 3 2 13` represent? Did you mean to type `"16 3 2 13"` to indicate a single string? – Samwise Feb 12 '21 at 03:54

You can divide it by using split:

"16 3 2 13".split()

Output:

["16","3","2","13"]

If you just want to split by whitespaces.

data = '16 3 2 13'
print(data.split())

a = '16 3 2 13'

b = ['']
print(type(b))
print(len(b))

j = 0
for i in range(len(a)):
    if a[i] != ' ':
        b[j] = b[j] + a[i]
    else:
        j = j+1
        b.append('')

print(b)
