Exercise

Split lines or split the line?

You are about to leave work when a colleague asks you to use your string manipulation skills to help him. You need to read strings from a file in a way that if the file contains strings on different lines, they are stored as separate elements. He also wants you to break the strings into pieces if you see that they contain commas.

The text of the file has been already saved in the variable file. You can use print(file) to view the variable in the IPython Shell.
