gt  gt  gt   QH QD JC KD JS  split     QH    QD    JC    KD    JS     split      Return a list of the words in the   string  using sep as the delimiter   string  If maxsplit is given  at most   maxsplit splits are done  thus  the   list will have at most maxsplit 1   elements   If maxsplit is not   specified  then there is no limit on   the number of splits  all possible   splits are made        If sep is given  consecutive   delimiters are not grouped together   and are deemed to delimit empty   strings  for example     1  2  split      returns   1        2     The sep argument may consist of   multiple characters  for example     1 lt  gt 2 lt  gt 3  split   lt  gt    returns   1    2    3     Splitting an empty string   with a specified separator returns              If sep is not specified or is None  a   different splitting algorithm is   applied  runs of consecutive   whitespace are regarded as a single   separator  and the result will contain   no empty strings at the start or end   if the string has leading or trailing   whitespace  Consequently  splitting an   empty string or a string consisting of   just whitespace with a None separator   returns          For example    1  2   3    split     returns   1    2    3    and    1  2  3    split None  1  returns   1    2 3

You can use the split   function  which returns a list  to separate them   letters    QH QD JC KD JS   letters list   letters split     Printing letters list would now format it like this     QH    QD    JC    KD    JS     Now you have a list that you can work with  just like you would with any other list  For example accessing elements based on indexes   print letters list 2     This would print the third element of your list  which is  JC
