Its either one or the other.
So you don't have a "csv file". You have a file with csv data, but also with headers. As Alan says, you want to divide it up so you've consumed the non-csv data and have only the csv data left (notice X,Y isn't part of your dataset either, even though it's in the format - it is column headers). Then it should be easy to process. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
