How to split up a string into separate characters in Python : Would it be possible to take a string and set a different variable for every character of the string? In other words..

    string='Hello'
    
    #Do some thing to split up the string here

    letter_1= #The first character of the variable 'string'
    letter_2= #The second character of the variable 'string'
    #...
    letter_5= #The fifth character of the variable 'string'

Thanks for any answers.
