or., and this isn't to argue with anyone;), you could:

>>> x = 'abcd'
>>> y = []
>>> for letter in x:
...     y.append(letter)
...
>>> print y
['a', 'b', 'c', 'd']

which explains that the list is derived from the string.

x is 'abcd', and list is the list seperated at the characters, and can
be split further with string
'tags'.
