title: csv file read - every single character in one single list
body: <p>I am rather new to python and could really need some help (I did not find anything that helped me by now).</p>
  
  <p>I want to read a csv-file to a <code>list</code>, but unfortunately my output is not as expected. Instead of having a list like:</p>
  
  <p><code>[[Weiz;61744],[Deutschlandsberg;5645]]</code></p>
  
  <p>I have a list that looks like this: </p>
  
  <p><code>[['W'],['e'],['i'], etc.]</code> </p>
  
  <p>My code looks like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>def readCSV(file):
      for row in open(file,"r+"):
          ftpstream = urllib.request.urlopen(row)
          csvFile = csv.reader(ftpstream.read().decode('latin-1'))
          data = [row for row in csvFile]
          for row in data:
              print(row)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Can anybody please tell me why it is not working? I am really struggling right now...</p>
