Newby: how to transform text into lines of text

Hello, I'va read a text file into variable "a" a=open('FicheroTexto.txt','r') a.read() "a" contains all the lines of the text separated by '\n' characters. Now, I want to work with each line separately, without the '\n' character. How can I get variable "b" as a list of such lines?
