i have a large number of lines i want to turn into a list.
In perl, i can do

@corenames=qw(
rb_basic_islamic
sq1_pentagonTile
sq_arc501Tile
sq_arc503Tile
);

use Data:umper;
print Dumper(\@corenames);

----------
is there some shortcut to turn lines into list in Python?

Impractical to mix code and data, isn't it?

chomp( my @corenames = <DATA> );

__DATA__
rb_basic_islamic
sq1_pentagonTile
sq_arc501Tile
sq_arc503Tile

Another way : (less typing of quotes)

all_names = """
rb_basic_islamic
sq1_pentagonTile
sq_arc501Tile
sq_arc503Tile
"""

corenames = all_names.split()

Obviously not impractical, given he did it quite easily and succinctly.

Not so easy when you have multiple variables to set. And the original
version was transparent in what it was doing - your version is not.
