csvutils: a csv wrapper for reading/writing files

csvutils provides utilities for iterating over text files, taking care of certain aspects of text files using parameters, like header lines, encoding, and files with variable number of fields in them.

>>> from csvutils import delimited
>>> with delimited.Reader(my_filename, my_fields) as reader:
        print('first line: {}'.format(next(reader)))
        reader.reset()
        for row in reader:
            print('line number {}: {}'.format(reader.rows_read, row))
...
