but it dont work fully

def formate(datafile):
	returnlines = ""
	currentline = datafile.readline()
	while currentline:
		if currentline[0] != ('#'):
			returnlines+= currentline +'\n'
			currentline = datafile.readline()
			return returnlines



def listdata(filename):
	datafile = open(filename, 'r')
	returnlines = []
	for currentline in datafile.readlines():
		if not currentline.startswith('#'):
			returnlines.append(currentline.replace('\n', '').split(','))
			currentline = datafile.readline()
			datafile.close()
			return returnlines


def presentdata(showdata):
	for item in showdata:
		print item
		print '\n'

to exercute the code

>>>datafile = open("StudentList.txt", "r")
>>>eventdata = datafile.readlines()
>>>print eventdata
