Hi all! 

I'm embarrassingly new at Python, so please forgive my probably simple 
mistakes. 

So I called readlines() on a file, and I'm wondering how I can check the 
equality of a specific line with a raw_input set variable as a condition. For 
example,

file = open('filename.txt,' 'r')
file.readlines()
variable_name = raw_input()
if file[2] == variable_name:
     #whatever 

This approach hasn't worked so far, does anyone have any tips? Thanks so much!!
