I am trying to read a text file in jupyter notebook and fetch the unique words in the file.
I am reading that file as a list and then trying to apply lower case on it. But the .lower() function doesn't work with a list. Please help with the same.

1dont read it as a `list` then ... what does that even mean? – Joran Beasley Feb 09 '17 at 04:20

My guess is the OP is reading the file as a list of lines, perhaps with `readlines()`. Is that right @Naveen? – Ray Toal Feb 09 '17 at 04:23

With a list of values in val you can do this:
valsLower = [item.lower() for item in vals]
