-Consider a typical CSV file containing, in this case, some time series data:
-
-.. ipython:: python
-
-   print(open('foo.csv').read())
-
-The default for `read_csv` is to create a DataFrame with simple numbered rows:
-
-.. ipython:: python
-
-   pd.read_csv('foo.csv')
-
-In the case of indexed data, you can pass the column number or column name you
-wish to use as the index:
-
-.. ipython:: python
-
-   pd.read_csv('foo.csv', index_col=0)
-
-.. ipython:: python
-
-   pd.read_csv('foo.csv', index_col='date')
-
-You can also use a list of columns to create a hierarchical index:
-
-.. ipython:: python
-
-   pd.read_csv('foo.csv', index_col=[0, 'A'])

-The ``dialect`` keyword gives greater flexibility in specifying the file format.

-or a :class:`python:csv.Dialect` instance.

-           'index1,"a,c,e\n'
-           'index2,b,d,f')
-
-Suppose you had data with unenclosed quotes:
-
-.. ipython:: python
-
-   print(data)
-
-By default, ``read_csv`` uses the Excel dialect and treats the double quote as
-the quote character, which causes it to fail when it finds a newline before it
-finds the closing double quote.

-We can get around this using ``dialect``

-All of the dialect options can be specified separately by keyword arguments:
-
-.. ipython:: python
-
-    data = 'a,b,c~1,2,3~4,5,6'
-    pd.read_csv(StringIO(data), lineterminator='~')
-
-Another common dialect option is ``skipinitialspace``, to skip any whitespace
-after a delimiter:
-
-.. ipython:: python
-
-   data = 'a, b, c\n1, 2, 3\n4, 5, 6'
-   print(data)
-   pd.read_csv(StringIO(data), skipinitialspace=True)
