Python: How do I convert each character in a string to a list?

Question

Say I have a string like this:

'0123456789'

can I convert that into a list like this?

['0', '1', '2', '3', '4', '5', '6', '7', '8', '9']

Thanks in advance! I've been searching for a while, but haven't found precisely what I want, so I asked a question.

For many use-cases like iteration and indexing you can the string directly. It's a sequence type. — Klaus D., Aug 05 '18 at 02:11

print(list(s))

Output:

['0', '1', '2', '3', '4', '5', '6', '7', '8', '9']

While this code may answer the question, providing additional context regarding how and/or why it solves the problem would improve the answer's long-term value. – Nic3500 Aug 05 '18 at 01:43
