Parsing CSV file in pandas with commas in last column

Question

I\'m stuck with some poorly formatted CSV data that I need to read into a Pandas dataframe. I cannot change how the data is being recorded (it\'s coming from someplace else)

Answer 1

Fix the csv, then proceed normally:

import csv
with open('path/to/broken.csv', 'rb') as f, open('path/to/fixed.csv', 'wb') as g:
    writer = csv.writer(g, delimiter=',')
    for line in f:
        row = line.split(',', 2)
        writer.writerow(row)

---

import pandas as pd
df = pd.read_csv('path/to/fixed.csv')
