[Tutor] Extract lines from a multinile string

[Eli Brosh]

Hello
I have a multiline string such as:
s='''This is the first line
This is the second line
This is the third longer line'''
 
Note that s has no control character such as \n.
The lines are defined as in "natural" writing.
 
How can I extract from s, several strings, each of which is a line from the original string ?
s1='This is the first line'
s2='This is the second line'
s3='This is the third longer line'
 
Suppose this can be done using some kind of loop,
How can I know that I extracted the last line in the string ? 
 
 
Thanks
Eli
