I agree, its impossible to tell what you want from the
description.

Show us a few lines of your file and the kinds of
search data you use and the expected results.

def my_traverse(f_name, search_token):
    with open(f_name, 'r') as f_obj:
      return [function_yet_to_be_written(line,search_token) for line in
f_obj]

Where the function returns whatever result you are
searching for.
