title: Store data based on location in a dataset python
body: <p>Forgive me if this question is trivial, I am just having some trouble finding a solution online, and I'm a bit new to python. Essentially, I have a dataset which is full of various numbers all of which are arranged in this format: </p>
  
  <pre><code>6.1101,17.592
  5.5277,9.1302
  8.5186,13.662
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I'm trying to write some python to get the number on either side of the comma. I assume it's some type of splitting, but I can't seem to find anything that works for this problem specifically since I want to take the ALL the numbers from the left and store them in a variable, then take ALL the numbers on the right store them in a variable. The goal is to plot the data points, and normally I would modify the data set, but it's a challenge problem so I am trying to figure this out with the data as is. </p>
