Python Pandas: How do I split a list into columns? 

I have a file like this:

1 45.40  38.99  100.33

2 44.89  89.23    23.45

3 49.90  78.82    99.32

I did the read operation:

import pandas as pd

df = pd.read_csv("myfile.txt") 

How do I get it to a column and then add it to a list? 
For example: 

A = [1,2,3]

B= [45.40, 44.89, 49.90]

I've tried so many different things and I'm stuck
