# get a list of numbers
reply   = input( 'Enter a list of numbers: ' )
slist   = reply.split()
print()
 
print( 'reply =', reply )
print( 'slist =', slist )
print()

#### convert numeric text into numbers one by one

# first set up a holder of elements
nlist = []  # initialize holder to prepare for adding elements

# now get conversions of the elements of slist one-by-one
for s in slist :
    # get numeric equivalent of s
    nbr = int( s )

    # add the equivalent to the numeric list
    nlist.append( nbr )

    # print the updated list
    print( nlist )
