"pythonic" method to parse a string of comma-separated integers into a list of integers?

Question

I am reading in a string of integers such as "3 ,2 ,6 " and want them in the list [3,2,6] as integers. This is easy to hack about, but what is the "pythonic" way of doing it?

Answer 1

mylist = [int(x) for x in '3 ,2 ,6 '.split(',')]

And if you're not sure you'll only have digits (or want to discard the others):

mylist = [int(x) for x in '3 ,2 ,6 '.split(',') if x.strip().isdigit()]
