pandas.DataFrame.from_csv¶
- classmethod DataFrame.from_csv(path, header=0, sep=', ', index_col=0, parse_dates=True, encoding=None)¶
Read delimited file into DataFrame
path : string file path or file handle / StringIO header : int, default 0
Row to use at header (skip prior rows)- sep : string, default ‘,’
- Field delimiter
- index_col : int or sequence, default 0
- Column to use for index. If a sequence is given, a MultiIndex is used. Different default from read_table
- parse_dates : boolean, default True
- Parse dates. Different default from read_table
Preferable to use read_table for most general purposes but from_csv makes for an easy roundtrip to and from file, especially with a DataFrame of time series data
