You can also try this
>>> a = '<NAME'
>>> a
'<NAME'
>>> a.partition('<')
('', '<', 'NAME')
>>> splitstring = a.partition('<')
>>> splitstring
('', '<', 'NAME')
>>> splitstring[0]
''
>>> splitstring[1]
'<'
>>> splitstring[2]
'NAME'
I guess you can use this tuple.
Hope this helps.
Thanks and Regards,
