I am trying to understand how to pass data back and forth from a form to a

the form.list, but I need to iterate over them and print a label for each.

And what I want to do is depending on what

Liam, "rU" worked like a charm. My previous syntax where the lines were condensing was:

In this instance the size of fRead would not correspond to my line numbers. With fOpen = file(f, "rU") it now does. Thanks :)

Think of it this way. A list comprehension generates a new list. So, you
should think about list comps whenever you have old_list -> new_list

There are two advantages to list comps over map:

I'm not sure if you can or want to do this solely one list comprehension.
You could make a helper function and use map:
