You can read a CSV file in Python using the built-in csv
module. Here’s an example of how to do it:
import csv with open('example.csv') as csvfile: reader = csv.reader(csvfile) for row in reader: print(row)
In this example, we first import the csv
module. We then open the CSV file using the open
function and pass it to csv.reader
. We use a with
block to automatically close the file when we’re done reading it.
Once we have the reader
object, we can iterate over it using a for
loop. Each row of the CSV file is returned as a list, and we print it out in this example.
You can also access individual columns of the CSV file by indexing into the row list. For example, row[0]
would give you the first column of the current row.
