If you expect help with a problem, it would be nice if you told us what
the problem is. What error did you get?
But even without that I see lots of errors:
You must import re before you use it:
import re
Open a file with open((..) not file.open(...).
Once you open the file you must *read* the contents and operate on that:
data = f.read()
Then you ought to close the file:
f.close()
Now you can do your sub on the string in data -- but note, THIS WON'T
CHANGE data, but rather returns a new string which you must assign to
something:
new_data = r.sub(ur"", data)
Then do something with the new string.
Also I fear your regular expression is incorrect.
