Python：将来自csv文件的行数据放入列表中

Question

I have a CSV file in the same directory as my Python script, and I would like to take that data and turn it into a list that I can use later. I would prefer to use Python's CSV module. After reading the the module's documentation and questions regarding it, I have still not found any help.

Code

#!/usr/bin/env python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import csv
inputfile = 'inputfile.csv'

inputm = []

reader = csv.reader(inputfile)

for row in reader:
    inputm.append(row)

inputfile.csv

point1,point2,point3,point4
0,1,4,1 
0,1,1,1 
0,1,4,1 
0,1,0,0
0,1,2,1 
0,0,0,0 
0,0,0,0 
0,1,3,1 
0,1,4,1

It only returns the string of the filename I provide it.

[['i'], ['n'], ['p'], ['u'], ['t'], ['f'], ['i'], ['l'], ['e']]

I would like it to return each row of the CSV file as a sub-list instead of each letter of the filename as a sub-list.

Answer 1

You need to open the file in read mode, read the contents! That is,

#!/usr/bin/env python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import csv
inputfile = 'inputfile.csv'

inputm = []

with open(inputfile, "rb") as f:
    reader = csv.reader(f, delimiter="\t")
    for row in reader:
        inputm.append(row)

Output:

[['point1,point2,point3,point4'], ['0,1,4,1'], ['0,1,1,1'], ['0,1,4,1'], ['0,1,0,0'], ['0,1,2,1'], ['0,0,0,0'], ['0,0,0,0'], ['0,1,3,1'], ['0,1,4,1']]

Answer 2

You actually need to open() the file:

inputfile = open('inputfile.csv')

You may want to look at the with statement:

with open('inputfile.csv') as inputfile:
    reader = csv.reader(inputfile)
    inputm = list(reader)
