how to split a python string
<p>I have a python function that returns the following:
</p>

<pre><code>result = myfunction()
result will be e.g. "192.168.200.123, 02/12/2013 13:59:42, 02/12/2013 13:59:42"
</code></pre>

<p>i.e. a string that contains 3 values separated by commas.</p>

<p>How do I split this string into 3 new variables??  </p>
