Is what you want this?

1 import c4d
2 
3 filepath = r'/Users/luke/documents/water.numbers.csv'
4             ^
5 fileobj = open(filepath, 'r')
6           ^^^^
7 print fileobj.readline()
                        ^

You had a space between "r" and "'" after "filepath =" which I think would make trouble (line 3).
You were missing the 'open' for creating a file object (line 5.
I think Python probably also won't like the space between "readline" and "()" (line 7).
