I need to pick out some numbers out of a string with commas mixed in

So Im doing a little Right Triangle Checker

    def RightTriangleChecker(Number1,Number2,Number3):
        AllNumbers=[Number1,Number2,Number3]
        Hypotonuse=max(AllNumbers)
        if(Number1**2+Number2**2==Number3**2):
            print "This is a right triangle."
        else:
           print"This is not a right triangle."

And the problem is that when I get the numbers out I get one number, comma and another number. Or some combination of those (depending on the input) i was wondering if anyone could help me find a way to just get the numbers.

    print"This is not a right triangle."


    def Retry():
        Answer==raw_input("Retry?")
        if (Answer=="Yes"):
            TriangleLength=raw_input("What are the lengths of the sides?         (Please put commas in-between each number)")
       RightTriangleChecker(TriangleLength[1],TriangleLength[2],TriangleLength[3])
else:
    exit(0)

    Original=raw_input("Would you like to use this program?")
    if (Original=="Yes"):
            TriangleLength=raw_input("What are the lengths of the sides? (Please put commas in-between each number)")
        RightTriangleChecker(TriangleLength[1],TriangleLength[2],TriangleLength[3])
    if (Original=="No"):
            exit(0)
    Retry()

s = "26, 43, 25"
nums = [int(i) for i in s.split(",")]

also, I would rewrite your function as

def is_right_triangle(x, y, z):
    a, b, c = sorted([x, y, z])
    return a*a + b*b == c*c
