uhm, i'm not sure if you ask about reading or writing. also, your "d" in 
def is uppercase.

reading from this file matrix.csv:
1,2,3
2,2,-1.1
0,0,1


works like this:
sage: import csv                           
sage: data = list(csv.reader(file("matrix.csv")))
sage: m = matrix([[ float(_) for _ in line] for line in data])
sage: m
[ 1.0  2.0  3.0]
[ 2.0  2.0 -1.1]
[ 0.0  0.0  1.0]

the other way around works like this (i print this, writing to the file is 
trivial)

for line in m.rows():
   print ','.join((str(_) for _ in line)) 

gives

1.0,2.0,3.0
2.0,2.0,-1.1
0.0,0.0,1.0
