It seems you're going through a lot of trouble just to construct the list by hand. Why don't you try slicing? > d = "a1 b1 c1 d1 e1 a2 b2 c2 d2 e2 a3 b3 c3 d3 e3 a4 b4 c4 d4 e4 a5 b5 c5 d5 > e5" > in_lst = d.split() > hit_lst = in_lst[0:6] > hit_lst_2 = in_lst[5:11] Regards, Marek -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
