New submission from Istvan Szirtes <istvan.szir...@gmail.com>:
The CSV module try to read a .csv file which is coded in utf-8 with utf-
8 BOM.
The first row in the csv file is
["value","vocal","vocal","vocal","vocal"]
in hex:
"value","vocal","vocal","vocal","vocal"
the reader can not read corectly the first row and if I try to seek up
to 0 somewhere in the file I got an error like this:
['\ufeff"value"', 'vocal', 'vocal', 'vocal', 'vocal']
I think the csv reader is not seekable correctly.
I attached a test file for the bug and here is my code:
import codecs
import csv
InDistancesFile = codecs.open( '..\\distances.csv', 'r', encoding='utf-
8' )
InDistancesObj = csv.reader( InDistancesFile )
for Row in InDistancesObj:
if Row[0] == '20':
print(Row)
break
InDistancesFile.seek(0)
for Row in InDistancesObj:
print(Row)
