But then you will still have a problem to match the word "foo" in a
string like "bar (foo)".

Rickard Lindberg, yesterday I was sleepy and my solution was wrong.

Right. Now I think the best solution is to use __contains__ (in) to

I see two potential problems with the non regex solutions.
1) Consider a line: "foo (bar)". When you split it you will only get
two strings, as split by default only splits the string on white space
characters. Thus "'bar' in words" will return false, even though bar is
a word in that line.

"""Print all lines in file that have both words in it."""
for line in file:
words = line.split()

line at a time and my pattern is that I am looking for the lines that
has the word 'event' and the word 'new'.
Note that i need lines that has both the words only and not
