csv

csv - A package reads and slices data from a CSV file

Features

• reads a csv with or without skipping header
• retrieves a single row or rows
• retrieves a single column or cols
• retrieves a slice of data by specifiying both the row range and column indices

Example

Read a CSV file, header skipped

err := reader.Read("sample/weights.csv", true)
if err != nil {
  fmt.Println(err)
}

Retrieves the first two rows

err := reader.Read("sample/weights.csv", true)
if err != nil {
  fmt.Println(err)
}
data := reader.Rows(1, 3)

Retrieves the data of the first and the third column

err := reader.Read("sample/weights.csv", true)
if err != nil {
  fmt.Println(err)
}
data := reader.Cols(1, 3)

We also support retrieving columns by their names, E.g.,

err := reader.Read("sample/weights.csv", ',', true, []string{"date","weight-in-kg",
		"time-of-last-meal"})
if err != nil {
  fmt.Println(err)
}
data := reader.Cols("date", "time-of-last-meal")

Retrieve the rows (2, 3, 4) of the data of the first and the third column

err := reader.Read("sample/weights.csv", true)
if err != nil {
  fmt.Println(err)
}
data := reader.Slice(2, 4, 1, 3)

In this case, we also support retrieving columns by their names. E.g.,

err := reader.Read("sample/weights.csv", ',', true, []string{"date","weight-in-kg",
       		"time-of-last-meal"})
if err != nil {
  fmt.Println(err)
}
data := reader.Slice(2, 4, "date", "time-of-last-meal")
