In this challenge I sent one value to the function and returned two using the multi-assign ability in Python I was able to assign them to new variables. That was pretty sweet.

challenge23.py

# Input: a list
# Output: Return the two halves as different lists.
# If the input list has an odd number, the middle item can go to any of the list.
# Your task is to write the function that splits a list in two halves.
fullList = ['1', '2', '3', '4', 'alpha', 'beta', 'triangle', 'soup', 'pickle']
def listSplitter(fullList):
    """ This function takes 1 list value, and returns 2 lists of the original split in half."""
    listSize = len(fullList)
    if listSize%2 == 0:
        firstList = fullList[:listSize/2]
        secondList = fullList[listSize/2:]
    else:
        firstList = fullList[:(listSize+1)/2]
        secondList = fullList[(listSize+1)/2:]
    return firstList, secondList

list1, list2 = listSplitter(fullList)

print "Here is the original list: ", fullList
print "Here are the two modified lists:"
print list1, " and ", list2
