Solution

The output of the Python code snippet print('12ctabctopct'.split('abc', -1)) will be ['12ct', 'topct'].

Here's the step-by-step explanation:

  1. The split() function in Python separates a string into a list where each word is a list item.

  2. The syntax of the split() function is str.split(separator, maxsplit).

    • separator (optional): Specifies the separator to use when splitting the string. By default any whitespace is a separator.
    • maxsplit (optional): Specifies how many splits to do. Default value is -1, which is "all occurrences".
  3. In your code, the string is '12ctabctopct' and the separator is 'abc'. The maxsplit is -1, which means "all occurrences".

  4. So, the split() function will split the string at every 'abc'.

  5. After splitting, the parts of the string that were separated by 'abc' become individual items in a list.

  6. Therefore, the output of the code will be a list with two items: ['12ct', 'topct'].
