Examples
Basic example using a CSV file
Note
In this first example, don't focus on the actual syntax being used. You can take a look at the API
reference later on for more information.
Imagine you are a classic rock fan and you want to extract the data from a CSV listing of all the
albums in your collection. Your goal is to extract records that change whenever the artist OR
the release year changes.
Here's what the CSV looks like:
"Artist","Album","Released"
"Beatles","Abbey Road",1969
"Beatles","Yellow Submarine",1969
"Led Zeppelin","Led Zeppelin 1",1969
"Led Zeppelin","Led Zeppelin 2",1969
"Beatles","Let it be",1969
"Rolling Stones","Let it bleed",1969
"Led Zeppelin","Led Zeppelin 3",1970
"Led Zeppelin","Led Zeppelin 4",1971
"Rolling Stones","Sticky Fingers",1971
