Something that came up in class... when you are pulling data from a file using f.next(), the file is read one line at a time.
What was explained to us is that Python iterates the file based on a carriage return as the delimiter. But what if you have a file that has one line of text, but that one line has 16,000 items that are comma delimited? Is there a way to read the file, one item at a time, delimited by commas WITHOUT having to read all 16,000 items from that one line, then split them out into a list or dictionary??
