CSV Reader not opening file

I'm trying to read the rows of a CSV file and print each row, but the code I've been using isn't opening the file or running the FOR loop. Any ideas?

import csv
domainFile = 'magtest.csv'
f = open(domainFile, 'ab+')
try:
    reader = csv.reader(f)
    print "file opened"
    for row in reader:
        print "Read domain: %s" %row
finally:
    f.close()

ab+ mode opens a file for both appending and binary format, so therefore you cannot read in the contents if it is open to be appended to, you want r to read it:

f = open(domainFile, 'r')

For more information about all of the different file modes, please refer to this documentation.
