C:\Documents and Settings\Igor.FORDANWORK\Desktop\winpdb>python
Python 2.7.5 (default, May 15 2013, 22:43:36) [MSC v.1500 32 bit
(Intel)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> test = "I,like,my,chocolate"
>>> print test.split(',')[2,3]
Traceback (most recent call last):

TypeError: list indices must be integers, not tuple

Thank you.
