How would I convert a string into a table in python?

Question

How would I convert a string into a table in python? Example:

s = "hello"
s.TurnIntoTable -> s = ["h","e","l","l","o"]

Lua tables are much the same as Python `dict`s. But where Lua uses tables as its only data structure, Python has specialized data structures: lists, tuples, sets; and explicit classes in place of Lua's roll-your-own approach. An afternoon spent with a Python tutorial might be in order. — BoarGules, Apr 11 '22 at 07:18

Simple turn it to a list:

s = "hello"
print( list(s) )

#['h', 'e', 'l', 'l', 'o']
