Reading rows from a CSV file in Python

Question

I have a CSV file, here is a sample of what it looks like:

Year:  Dec: Jan:
1      50   60
2      25   50
3      30   30
4      40   20
5      10   10
         


        

Answer 1

The Easiest way is this way :

from csv import reader

# open file in read mode
with open('file.csv', 'r') as read_obj:
    # pass the file object to reader() to get the reader object
    csv_reader = reader(read_obj)
    # Iterate over each row in the csv using reader object
    for row in csv_reader:
        # row variable is a list that represents a row in csv
        print(row)

output:
['Year:', 'Dec:', 'Jan:']
['1', '50', '60']
['2', '25', '50']
['3', '30', '30']
['4', '40', '20']
['5', '10', '10']
