my file is this
4 7 a a
s g 6 8 0 d
g 6 2 1 f 7 9
f g 3
1 2 4 6 8 9 0
I was using pandas to save it in form of pandas object. But I am getting the following error
pandas.parser.CParserError: Error tokenizing data. C error: Expected 6 fields in line 3, saw 8
The code I used was
file = pd.read_csv("a.txt",dtype = None,delimiter = " ")
Can anyone suggest an idea to include the file as such ?
Here's one way.
In [50]: !type temp.csv
4,7,a,a
s,g,6,8,0,d
g,6,2,1,f,7,9
f,g,3
1,2,4,6,8,9,0
Read the csv to list of lists and then convert to DataFrame.
In [51]: pd.DataFrame([line.strip().split(',') for line in open('temp.csv', 'r')])
Out[51]:
0 1 2 3 4 5 6
0 4 7 a a None None None
1 s g 6 8 0 d None
2 g 6 2 1 f 7 9
3 f g 3 None None None None
4 1 2 4 6 8 9 0
