reading csv problem

[ajikoe]

Hello,

I use csv to take information from file.
import csv
reader = csv.reader(open('t.csv'))

for row in reader:
print row # it is perfectly OK

---------------------------------------------------------------------
But If I use this code I have problem
import csv
reader = csv.reader(open('t.csv'))

for row in reader:
print row # it is perfectly OK
for row in reader:
print row # it is not printed on the monitor???

Why does only the first print row work here?

TIA,
ajikoe

Because reader is an iterator and has no means of going back to its
beginning.

You could make a list out of it:
lines = list(csv.reader(open('t.csv')))
for row in lines:
print row
for row in lines:
print row

Hope it helps,

Cameron.
