Python Pandas Error tokenizing data

Question

I\'m trying to use pandas to manipulate a .csv file but I get this error:

pandas.parser.CParserError: Error tokenizing data. C error: Expected 2 field

Answer 1

Although not the case for this question, this error may also appear with compressed data. Explicitly setting the value for kwarg compression resolved my problem.

result = pandas.read_csv(data_source, compression='gzip')
