Oftentimes I feel like upgrading to pandas while manipulating CSVs. It gives you a whole new world of possibilities.

import pandas as pd
df=pd.read_csv('test.csv')
for index, row in df.iterrows():
    d=row.to_dict()
    print(d)

print("")

print( df[df.val3>10].iloc[0].to_dict() )
print( list(df[['val3']]['val3']) )

Output:

{'val1': 1, 'val2': 2, 'val3': 3}
{'val1': 22, 'val2': 23, 'val3': 33}

{'val1': 22, 'val2': 23, 'val3': 33}
[3, 33]
