A very simple question: I currently use a cumbersome-looking way of
getting the first, second, etc. line of a text file:
for i, line in enumerate( open( textfile ) ):
if i == 0:
print 'First line is: ' + line
elif i == 1:
print 'Second line is: ' + line
.......
.......
I thought about f = open( textfile ) and then f[0], f[1], etc but that
throws a TypeError: 'file' object is unsubscriptable.
Is there a simpler way?
