<p class="versionadded">
<span class="versionmodified">New in version 2.3.</span></p>
<p id="index-0">The so-called CSV (Comma Separated Values) format is the most common import and
export format for spreadsheets and databases. There is no “CSV standard”, so
the format is operationally defined by the many applications which read and
write it. The lack of a standard means that subtle differences often exist in
the data produced and consumed by different applications. These differences can
make it annoying to process CSV files from multiple sources. Still, while the
delimiters and quoting characters vary, the overall format is similar enough
that it is possible to write a single module which can efficiently manipulate
such data, hiding the details of reading and writing the data from the
programmer.</p>
<p>The <a class="reference internal" href="#module-csv" title="csv: Write and read tabular data to and from delimited files."><tt class="xref py py-mod docutils literal"><span class="pre">csv</span></tt></a> module implements classes to read and write tabular data in CSV
format. It allows programmers to say, “write this data in the format preferred
by Excel,” or “read data from this file which was generated by Excel,” without
knowing the precise details of the CSV format used by Excel. Programmers can
also describe the CSV formats understood by other applications or define their
own special-purpose CSV formats.</p>

<p>The <a class="reference internal" href="#module-csv" title="csv: Write and read tabular data to and from delimited files."><tt class="xref py py-mod docutils literal"><span class="pre">csv</span></tt></a> module defines the following functions:</p>
<dl class="function">
<dt id="csv.reader">
<tt class="descclassname">csv.</tt><tt class="descname">reader</tt><big>(</big><em>csvfile</em>, <em>dialect='excel'</em>, <em>**fmtparams</em><big>)</big><a class="headerlink" href="#csv.reader" title="Permalink to this definition">¶</a></dt>
<dd><p>Return a reader object which will iterate over lines in the given <em>csvfile</em>.
<em>csvfile</em> can be any object which supports the <a class="reference internal" href="../glossary.html#term-iterator"><em class="xref std std-term">iterator</em></a> protocol and returns a
string each time its <tt class="xref py py-meth docutils literal"><span class="pre">next()</span></tt> method is called — file objects and list
objects are both suitable. If <em>csvfile</em> is a file object, it must be opened
with the ‘b’ flag on platforms where that makes a difference. An optional
<em>dialect</em> parameter can be given which is used to define a set of parameters
specific to a particular CSV dialect. It may be an instance of a subclass of
the <a class="reference internal" href="#csv.Dialect" title="csv.Dialect"><tt class="xref py py-class docutils literal"><span class="pre">Dialect</span></tt></a> class or one of the strings returned by the
<a class="reference internal" href="#csv.list_dialects" title="csv.list_dialects"><tt class="xref py py-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">list_dialects()</span></tt></a> function. The other optional <em>fmtparams</em> keyword arguments
can be given to override individual formatting parameters in the current
dialect. For full details about the dialect and formatting parameters, see
section <a class="reference internal" href="#csv-fmt-params"><em>Dialects and Formatting Parameters</em></a>.</p>
<p>Each row read from the csv file is returned as a list of strings. No
automatic data type conversion is performed.</p>

<p class="versionchanged">
<span class="versionmodified">Changed in version 2.5: </span>The parser is now stricter with respect to multi-line quoted fields. Previously,
if a line ended within a quoted field without a terminating newline character, a
newline would be inserted into the returned field. This behavior caused problems
when reading files which contained carriage return characters within fields.
The behavior was changed to return the field without inserting newlines. As a
consequence, if newlines embedded within fields are important, the input should
be split into lines in a manner which preserves the newline characters.</p>

<dd><p>Return a writer object responsible for converting the user’s data into delimited
strings on the given file-like object. <em>csvfile</em> can be any object with a
<tt class="xref py py-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">write()</span></tt> method. If <em>csvfile</em> is a file object, it must be opened with the
‘b’ flag on platforms where that makes a difference. An optional <em>dialect</em>

dialect. For full details about the dialect and formatting parameters, see
section <a class="reference internal" href="#csv-fmt-params"><em>Dialects and Formatting Parameters</em></a>. To make it
as easy as possible to interface with modules which implement the DB API, the
value <a class="reference internal" href="constants.html#None" title="None"><tt class="xref py py-const docutils literal"><span class="pre">None</span></tt></a> is written as the empty string. While this isn’t a
reversible transformation, it makes it easier to dump SQL NULL data values to
CSV files without preprocessing the data returned from a <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">cursor.fetch*</span></tt> call.
All other non-string data are stringified with <a class="reference internal" href="functions.html#str" title="str"><tt class="xref py py-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">str()</span></tt></a> before being written.</p>
