Hi.
There are several ways to do this:
# list comprehension
lines = [line for line in file("your/file/name/here")]
# file_object.readlines()
lines = file("your/file/name/here").readlines()
# build list from iterator
lines = list(file("your/file/name/here"))
# for loop
lines = []
for line in file("your/file/name/here"):
lines.append(line)
