Thanks, Kent. I ended up using:
>>> from numpy import *
I wasn't sure what the diff

Hi Everyone,
I am trying to read a comma-delimitted list ("aaa","bbb","ccc") from a text
file and assign those values to a list, x, such that:
x = ["aaa", "bbb", "ccc"]
The code that I have come up with looks like this:
>>> x = []
>>> f = open(r'c:\test.txt', 'r')
>>> x.extend(f.readlines())

and select "python-2.5.2.msi".
Once it's installed, you should have a directory on your machine called
"C:\python25
