CSV files are a way for data exchange, but their formatting can vary. See how to work with csv delimiters in Pandas.
CSV Delimiters
Commas (,) are common, but tabs (\t) or pipes (|) can also be used. You can specify the delimiter using the delimiter argument in pd.read_csv.
Example (Tab-delimited CSV)
import pandas as pd data = pd.read_csv("my_data.txt", delimiter="\t") # Replace with your file path
CSV Quotes
Quotes (“) are used to enclose data containing special characters or delimiters. Pandas automatically detects quotes, but you can specify them using the quotechar argument.
Example (CSV with commas in a field)
import pandas as pd data = pd.read_csv("my_data.csv", quotechar='"') # Replace with your file path
For complex formatting, explore the read_csv documentation for more options.
