I have a comma delimited file with 62 fields of which some are comments.
There are about 1.5 million records/lines. Sme of the fields which has
comments and which i do not need have 40 characters. Of the 62 fields, I
will need at most 12 fields. What's best way to read in the fields I need.
If I read the entire file at once I will run out of memory. Could anyone
please suggest some solution?
Thanks,
Babu.
