You re not reading the file content   my file contents   f read     See the docs for further infos  You could  without calling read   or readlines   loop over your file object   f   open  goodlines txt   for line in f      print line    If you want a list out of it  without  n as you asked   my list    line rstrip   n   for line in f

Try this     gt  gt  gt  f   open  goodlines txt     gt  gt  gt  mylist   f readlines     open   function returns a file object  And for file object  there is no method like splitlines   or split    You could use dir f  to see all the methods of file object

You are using str methods on an open file object   You can read the file as a list of lines by simply calling list   on the file object   with open  goodlines txt   as f      mylist   list f    This does include the newline characters  You can strip those in a list comprehension   with open  goodlines txt   as f      mylist    line rstrip   n   for line in f
