[Tutor] Syntax error and EOL Error

[Nym City]

Hello,
Thank you for your response. I have made updates and here is the new code:
import csv
DomainList = []

domains = open('domainlist.csv', 'rb')
DomainList = csv.reader(domains)
DomainList = [column[1] for column in DomainList(str.rstrip('/'))]
print(DomainList)
For "DomainList = [column[1] for column in DomainList(str.rstrip('/'))]" line, I am getting following error:TypeError: '_csv.reader' object is not callable
Doing some research, i thought it might be because I am importing the csv as 'r' only so i tried changing it to 'rb' and 'w' but received the same error.
Also, not sure if the next error is because of the above issue but I get syntax error when I do the last print and I do not see any syntax issue with it.
As always, thanks in advance. 
 Thank you.

Look at the lines preceding the one triggering the SyntaxError. Usually 
there is an opening (, [ or { which doesn't have a matching closing 
counterpart. 

In your case count the parens in the line

> DomainList = (str(DomainList).rstrip('/')

By the way, even without error this line will not have the desired effect.
Given 

>>> DomainList = ["facebook.com/", "twitter.com/"]

converting to string gives

>>> str(DomainList)
"['facebook.com/', 'twitter.com/']"

and as that doesn't end with a "/" applying the rstrip() method has no 
effect. Instead you can modify the line

> DomainList = [column[1] for column in DomainList]

where you can invoke the rstrip() method on every string in the list.
