Hi,

I am new to python and i wrote this piece of code which is ofcourse not
serving my purpose:

Aim of the code:

To read a file and look for lines which contain the string 'CL'. When found,
print the entry of the next line (positioned directly below the string 'CL')
....continue to do this till the end of the file (since there are more than
one occurrences of 'CL' in the file)

My piece of code (which just prints lines which contain the string 'CL')

f=open('somefile.txt','r')

for line in f.readlines():

     if 'CL' in line:
              print line


please suggest how do i print the entry right below the string 'CL'
