    CSV Files (Comma Separated Value Files)

    CSV files are simple text files has csv as extension (.csv). These files are important when we
    want to store the data in tabular form as data is saved in excel /sql ( in form of rows and
    columns).
    Unlike binary files, in csv files data can be easily readable either in excel (tabular form) or in
    text editor ( data is separated by comma).
    In csv file, each line of the file is data record and each record consists of one or more fields.
    For eg:
    Train number Train Name Boarding Last stop Boarding Time
    12962 Avantika Exp Indore Mumbai 4:15pm

    Note: The CSV files are opened in Excel by default and after opening in Excel the data of file
    is automatically shown in different columns.
    Writing CSV files in Python : To work with csv files in Python, we import csv module:

    Writing CSV file using CSV module  File 'Innovators.csv' is opened in 'w' file
    mode.
    import csv  To avoid empty line between records,
    f=open('Innovators.csv', 'w', newline='') we use newline attribute assign with
    w= csv.writer(f) empty string.
    Fields = ['Sno', 'Name', 'Contribution']  For writing in csv file, first create a
    First = [1, 'Dennis Ritchie' , 'C'] writing handle.
    Second =[2, 'Bjarne Stroustrup', 'C++' ]  To create a writing handle, we use
    Third =[3, 'Guido Van Rossum', 'Python'] writer() function that returns the writer
    w.writerow ( Fields) object which writes data into csv file.
    w.writerow ( First)  Create lists with data.
    w.writerow ( Second)  writerow() function writes a row of
    w.writerow ( Third) data into the specified file.
    f.close()  Close() the file.
    Writing multiple rows using writerows()
    function
    import csv • This code writes header(column
    records= [['Sno', 'Name', 'Contribution'], name) and three records in the file
    [1,' ', 'Dennis Ritchie' ,' ', 'C'], using writerows() function in a one
    [2, 'Bjarne Stroustrup', 'C++' ], shot.
    [3, 'Guido Van Rossum', 'Python']]
    f=open('Innovators.csv', 'w' , newline='')
    w= csv.writer(f)
    w.writerows(records)
    f.close()
    Reading from csv file:

    import csv  Here we open a previously defined


    f = open('Innovators.csv', 'r') csv file 'Innovators.csv' for reading
    r = csv.reader(f) purpose.
    for i in r:  reader() function returns a reader
    print(i) object that iterates over line in the
    f.close() given csv file.
    >>>  for loop iterates each line written
    ['Sno', 'Name', 'Contribution'] in the file and print it in the form
    ['1', 'Dennis Ritchie', 'C'] of list.
    ['2', 'Bjarne Stroustrup', 'C++']
    ['3', 'Guido Van Rossum', 'Python']
    To open a file using with keyword

    with open('firstfile.txt','w') as f:
    f.write ('To open a file using with keyword\n')
    f.write ('There is no need to close the file explicitly\n')
    f.write ('when open with "with" keyword')

    with open ('firstfile.txt', 'r') as f:


    s=f.read()
    print(s)

    >>>
    To open a file using with keyword
    There is no need to close the file explicitly
    when open with 'with' keyword
