I used input() in my program, to convert the input into a list type, but I read that I should use raw\_input() instead.

I'm trying to let the user input vectors in the form (4,4),(2,5),(1,6)
Using input() it worked.

I used: 

```
vectors = list(input('enter vectors\n'))

```

after changing it to raw\_input() I get a list with all elements in the str

```
'(' '4' ',' '4' ')' ',' '(' '2' ',' '5' ')' ',' '(' '1' ',' '6' ')'

```

How can I get the input converted to a list I would get as if I used input()?
Should I just go back to using input() instead?
