Incorrect format in CSV excel file when loading JSON data into CSV

Question

I have some data in a JSON file, and I have used the code below to write them into csv file, but I found that the each word in a sentence has occupied one column, I want to store whole sentence in a single column.

This is the code:

for line in open('test1.json', 'r'):
    if not line.strip():
        continue
    data = json.loads(line)
    text = data["text"]
    filtered_text = clean_tweets(text)
    print(filtered_text)
    with open ('test1.csv', 'a', encoding='utf-8') as f:
        csvWriter = csv.writer(f)
        csvWriter.writerow(filtered_text)
f.close()

This is the output of csv file.

Answer 1

csv.writerow() expects an iterable parameter. Each item in the iterable is placed in a column. Strings are iterable, hence you get a single character in each column.

Put the string(s) in a list:

csvWriter.writerow([filtered_text])

But since you seem to only have one column, using the csv module is unnecessary. Just use:

with open('test1.csv', 'a', encoding='utf8') as f:
    f.write(filtered_text + '\n') # add newline if needed

Another option:

with open('test1.csv', 'a', encoding='utf8') as f:
    print(filtered_text,file=f) # will add the newline

Answer 2

csvWriter.writerow()获取列表或类似的列-您需要提供例如csvWriter.writerow([tweet_id, filtered_tweet])
