FasterCSV question: skip headers

[Thiel Chang]

Hi ,

I am refactoring a class that's using Fastercsv to read a csv file. How
do I skip the first (header) line. Now I'm using a helpvariable skipHEADER
but I want a more elegant solution .

Kind regards,

Thiel

How do I skip the first (header) line. Now I'm using a helpvariable =
skipHEADER but I want a more elegant solution .

If I understand the question correctly, I would recommend setting =
:headers =3D> true as a FasterCSV option. This will cause it to read =
the headers in the first row, but not return them. You can then refer =
to columns by name, instead of by number.

Hope that helps.
