I have to ask for a pointer, not sure what I am doing wrong.
The first thing you are doing "wrong" is failing to tell us what is in the wordlist file and what results you get when you run the program.
Please re-post with that information.
#!/usr/bin/python password = 'loser' wordlist = '/home/david/Challenge-You/wordlist.txt' try: words = open(wordlist, 'r').readlines() except IOError, e: print "Sorry no words" for word in words: word = word.replace("\n","") if password in word: print word else: print 'You are a loser'
