AttributeError：'_io.TextIOWrapper'对象没有属性'reader'

Question

Couldn't get what wrong in the code, as csv module has a csv.reader() function as per the documentation . But I am still getting this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "test_csv.py", line 4, in <module>
    read = csv.reader(csv, delimiter = ',')
AttributeError: '_io.TextIOWrapper' object has no attribute 'reader'

My code:

import csv

with open('test_csv.csv') as csv:
    read = csv.reader(csv, delimiter = ',')
    for row in read:
        print(row)

Answer 1

You re-bound the name csv in the as target:

with open('test_csv.csv') as csv:

This masks the module name, so csv.reader is resolved on the file object .

Use a different target:

with open('test_csv.csv') as csvfile:
    read = csv.reader(csvfile, delimiter = ',')
    for row in read:
        print(row)
