I have a string which I want to convert to a list with only one element in it.
a = abc
print list(a)
output : ['a','b','c']
Expected o/p = ['abc']
What is the proper way to do it ?

Another way to convert a string to a list is by using the split() Python method. The split() method splits a string into a list, where each list item is each word that makes up the string. Each word will be an individual list item.
Using the * Operator The * operator can also be used to repeat elements of a list. When we multiply a list with any number using the * operator, it repeats the elements of the given list. Here, we just have to keep in mind that to repeat the elements n times, we will have to multiply the list by (n+1).
In Python, a list is created by placing elements inside square brackets [] , separated by commas.
Simply use [..]:
a = 'abc'
b = [a]
print(b)
[..] is list notation, you can feed it a comma-separated list of values. For instance [1,4,2,5,'a',1+2,4/3,3.1415],... Or as specified in the documentation:
(..) The most versatile is the list, which can be written as a list of comma-separated values (items) between square brackets. Lists might contain items of different types, but usually the items all have the same type.
