Python: How do I print a string that contains multiple words on different lines?

So say I have

x = "this string"

I'm trying to print the two words on different lines. I'm thinking that I need to use string.split() in some way but I'm not sure how.

You don't have to use split(). This should do it.

print x.replace(' ', '\n')

CodePad.

It replaces the space character with the newline character.

You can use this:

print '\n'.join(x.split())

where 

x = 'this string'
x.split() # ['this', 'string']
