Thanks, I haven't see it.
Just a question about that "different algorithm", because it force the
developer to do other work for make the "split" result more "logically
compatible":

S = "" # this can become from an external source like config parser

for s n S.split():
   do the work... # don't go inside

that isn't "compatible", so python split it into two different methods
the string, with:

for s n S.split(','):
   do the work... # run one time into this
