When i open a file in python, and then print the

print(line)
i=i+1

'count' : 49,
'c2' : '0.102040816326531',
How can i print the file out without having an extra newline between
printed lines?
Thanks for the help all.
Each line read from the file still includes its line ending, and
'print' normally prints a newline at the end, which is why you're
getting a blank line.
You could stop the print from printing its newline:
print(line, end="") # Python 3
or:
print line, # Python 2
or you could strip the newline off what you're printing:
print(line.rstrip('\n'))
