Python split single tuple value into multiple values

Question

I have the following tuple value and wanted to split single tuple value into multiple values.I tried converting the tuple to string and used split(),splitlines() based on \n as delimiter however it didn't work.Any inputs please?

INPUT:
('2018-10-23\n2018-10-25\n2018-10-26\n2018-10-27\n2018-10-28\n2018-10-30\n', 0)

OUTPUT:
2018-10-23
2018-10-25
2018-10-27
2018-10-28
2018-10-30

Please give a minimal reproducible example, what exactly do you mean by "didn't work"? — jonrsharpe

You need to split the first element of the tuple:

inpt = ('2018-10-23\n2018-10-25\n2018-10-26\n2018-10-27\n2018-10-28\n2018-10-30\n', 0)

result = inpt[0].strip().split()

for e in result:
    print(e)

Output

If you want a list, you can use str.splitlines. If you want the output you posted on the screen... just print it.

>>> inp = ('2018-10-23\n2018-10-25\n2018-10-26\n2018-10-27\n2018-10-28\n2018-10-30\n', 0)
>>> 
>>> inp[0].splitlines()
['2018-10-23',
 '2018-10-25',
 '2018-10-26',
 '2018-10-27',
 '2018-10-28',
 '2018-10-30']
>>> 
>>> print(inp[0], end='')
2018-10-23
2018-10-25
2018-10-26
2018-10-27
2018-10-28
2018-10-30
