csv con python 3 code example

Example 1: create csv file python

# This action requires the 'csv' module
import csv

# The basic usage is to first define the rows of the csv file:
row_list = [["SN", "Name", "Contribution"],
             [1, "Linus Torvalds", "Linux Kernel"],
             [2, "Tim Berners-Lee", "World Wide Web"],
             [3, "Guido van Rossum", "Python Programming"]]

# And then use the following to create the csv file:
with open('protagonist.csv', 'w', newline='') as file:
    writer = csv.writer(file)
    writer.writerows(row_list)
# This will create a csv file in the current directory

Example 2: python read scv

import csv
with open('eggs.csv', newline='') as csvfile:
    spamreader = csv.reader(csvfile, delimiter=' ', quotechar='|')
    for row in spamreader:
        print(', '.join(row))

# Output:
# Spam, Spam, Spam, Spam, Spam, Baked Beans
# Spam, Lovely Spam, Wonderful Spam
