Dear Amrita, No one will tell you commands for your program. We can give you logic and the way to implement it. It is recommended that you write the code your self. For our problem you keep a list and do a readlines() function and get the content in your list variable. then start looping through that list like for line in lines: where the lines variable is your list. Now keep comparing each line against your expected phrase and the moment you find one, do the actions you need such as writing to a file. happy hacking.
