[Tutor] input and raw input

[John Chandler]

you can use an re split...

import re
a=raw_input("Enter the number of your class in the school:")
regex = re.compile("[ ,]") #sets the delimeters to a single space or comma
m = regex.split(a)

if you want to use any white space character than you can use "[\s,]"
