Converting file to key/value dictionary

Question

I am unsure if what I have is actually creating a new dictionary. I want to take a file that currently has two words separated by commas on each line and turn it into a dictiona

Answer 1

Use the CSV module

import csv
with open('some.csv', 'rb') as f:
    reader = csv.reader(f)
    for row in reader:
        print row

They already solved the problem you are trying to solve, including quoting issues, iterating over lines, and parsing it out :)

You can try something like this for your code:

import csv
def readACSV():
    with open('file.csv', 'r') as WDictionary
    reader = csv.reader(WDictionary)
    for row in reader:
         yield row

for line in readACSV():
    print line

Dont know if that helps, but a little usage example in case you were unsure how to use it.
