  How can I put a split string into a list where the items are the chars?
  
  For example, I want to split the string num, '123', by its characters (1, 2 and 3) and put it in a list, numlist. However, using num.split() it gives me ['123']when I want ['1','2','3']. Is this possible?
  
  A:
  
  num = "123"
  numlist = list(num)
  
  print(numlist)
  
  Outputs:
  ['1', '2', '3']
