"what does the list look like after this code executes?
colors = "red, orange, yellow, green, blue"
s = colors. split(",")
["red", "orange", ""yellow", "green", "blue"]
["red orange yellow green blue"]
[red, orange, yellow, green, blue]
red

The list created by the split method in Python 3 will be ["red", "orange", ""yellow", "green", "blue"]

Explanation:

In Python 3, the split method takes the input string, in this case is colors = "red,orange,yellow,green,blue", and split it into a list and you can indicate the separator that the method will use.

The general syntax for this method is:

string.split(separator,max)

separator indicates the character that will be used as a delimiter of each list member and the max parameter indicates the maximum number of separations to make.  

Since each color in your string is separated by the character "," the code will make a list in which every color is a separated string.
