What would a list.strip() method mean on a list of integers ?

> is there any solutions

mylist = ['amjad\n', 'kiki\n', 'jijiji\n']
print "with map : "
print map(str.lstrip, mylist)
print "with list comprehension :"
print [line.lstrip() for line in mylist]
print "with a for loop :"
strippedlist = []
for line in mylist:
  strippedlist.append(line.lstrip())
print strippedlist

Probably. Reading some CS101 tutorial might be a good idea...
