Right, and then because error was caused for an unexpected extra tab you
made the deposit pass as a withdrawal...

A string.split returns a list so you don't have to know how many
elements there are beforehand. A simple example
withdraw = line.split("\t")
if len(withdraw) == 3:
match_3(withdraw)
elif len(withdraw) == 4::
match_4(withdraw)
else:
print "line.split() is not 3 or 4", withdraw

I wouldn't be surprised if your teacher gave you that on purpose. There's an old maxim which I think applies here: "Be liberal in what you accept and conservative in what you produce." Note that you have *not* come up with code that handles the dataset given to you by your professor. Do not expect full marks on this homework assignment, unless you go back and modify your code to handle extraneous tabs at the end of the line.

Just print out the split without unpacking to see how many elements
there are actually present:
print string.split(line, "\t")
By the way, most functions of the string module are deprecated in
favor of string methods; the above is better written as
print line.split("\t")

Put in a second arg of 'rb'; if not the case now, someone might run
your code on Windows some day.

Possibly (in one or more rows) the address field has a comma in it and
it's not quoted properly.
Try writing your code in a more defensive fashion:
ENCOLS = 11
rownum = 0
for row in csvreader:
rownum += 1
ancols = len(row)
if ancols != ENCOLS:
print "Row %d has %d columns (expected %d)" \
% (rownum, ancols, ENCOLS)
print row
# pass/return/continue/break/raise/call error logger .
(boxid, mac, activated, hw_ver,
sw_ver, heartbeat, name, address,
phone, country, city) = row

You say all rows have 11 fields, the csv module insists on an error... try
using some print statements to see who is right:
for index, items in enumerate(csvreader):
print index, len(items)
if len(items)!=11: print items

csvreader = csv.reader(myfile)

That happens when you try something like this: a,b,c = [1,2,3,4] It means there are more items on the right side than the left. You probably have < 11 variables on the left side.
