Be warned that your code doesn't read the whole file if that file contains
lines with only whitespace characters. If you want to print every line,
change the loop to
while 1:
line = f.readline()
if line == "":
break
print line.strip()
i. e. don't strip() the line until you have tested for an empty string. The
idiomatic way to loop over the lines in a file is
for line in f:
print line.strip()
