pandas.DataFrame.from_csv — pandas 0.24.0rc1 documentation (original) (raw)

path : string file path or file handle / StringIO

header : int, default 0

Row to use as 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

tupleize_cols : boolean, default False

write multi_index columns as a list of tuples (if True) or new (expanded format) if False)

infer_datetime_format : boolean, default False

If True and parse_dates is True for a column, try to infer the datetime format based on the first datetime string. If the format can be inferred, there often will be a large parsing speed-up.
