I have a TSV file containing a few strings like this (double quotes are
part of the string):
'"pragma: CacheHandler=08616B7E907744E026C9F044250EA55844CCFD52"'
After Python and the CVS module has read the file and re-printed the
value, the string has become:
'pragma: CacheHandler=08616B7E907744E026C9F044250EA55844CCFD52'
which is NOT good for me. I went back to Perl and noticed that Perl was
correctly leaving the original string intact.
This is what I am using to read the file:
with open(file, newline='') as csvfile:
myReader = csv.reader(csvfile, delimiter='\t')
for row in myReader:
and this is what I use to write the cell value
sys.stdout.write(row[0])
Is there some directive I can give CVS reader to tell it to stop
screwing with my text?
Thanks
