And the first thing that I note is that he checks to see if it is in
the list from which it came.

The first thing I note in looking at this is that the second loop will
run AFTER the first loop completes, not for each step of the loop,
because you outdented the code.
Also, you unconditionally add the word, and THEN check if it is in the list.

Below is my approach which I am sure is wrong somewhere and it doesn't work the
way expected, the append doesn't do anything in my code nor does it returns any
traceback all i see is a empty list printed at the end, I am using win10 x64
python 3.x atom-editor. Please take a look if you can tell me what am I doing
wrong here. I want to check each list word by word if the word is not repeated
in the same list it should be appended to a 'newlist'. Thanks in advance
handle = open('file.txt')
newlist = list()
for line in handle:
#line.rstrip()
linewords = line.split()
print(linewords)
for word in linewords:
newlist.append(word)
if word not in linewords:
continue
print('new: ',newlist)

It is true that people here are often very knowledgeable to help with python problems, but as a rule, doing someone's homework isn't something people like to do. On to your problem.
