This will probably work, too -- is it "valid"?

s = 'spot'
slen = len(s)
alist = [''] * slen
for i in range(slen):
    alist[i] = s[i]

You can write code in Perl or Intercal [bonus points if you can tell
the difference] and it's "valid" in the sense that it works, but there
are many more considerations than that.
