Python - String to Char type-conversion?

Question

how do I use type-conversion to return a type chart from a string which contains only a single letter?

i.e.
for word in sentence:
for letter in word:
someFunctionWillNeedChar=(char)letter????

...or
=char(letter)?????

help?

Answer 1

python does not have a char datatype..

just append each letter to a list.

chars=[]
for i in "Help":
chars.append(i)

print(chars[2])

Answer 2

ohhhh, I'm an idiot...anyways. nvmd, thanks!

Answer 3

no i m a idiot

Answer 4

for i in "Help":
print(i)

If you iterate thru the word, it will give you letter by letter

Answer 5

that's not the problem I'm having. as you can see in the OP here, for letter in word:
instead of printing letter, I want to save letter to a separate variable, and typecast it as type char.
