How to create dict of dicts using csv file



I'd like to create a dictionary with the key's being the first row of the csv file and the value's being a dictionary of first column: corresponding column to row For example, test.csv


Header1, Header2, Header3
A, 1, 10
B, 2, 20
C, 3, 30



I am using data.drop(['Header1'], 1) to drop Header1.


data.drop(['Header1'], 1)


Header1



I would like the resulting dict to be:


'Header2':A:1, B:2, C:3,'Header3':A:10, B:20, C:30



Should I be using csv.DictReader? Or numpy arrays instead?


csv.DictReader





Dont you mean 'Header2':A:1, B:2, C:3,'Header3':A:10, B:20, C:30 ?

Using pandas,


df = pd.read_csv(testcsv, index_col=['Header1'], sep=',s+')
df.to_dict()



Output:


'Header2': 'A': 1, 'B': 2, 'C': 3, 'Header3': 'A': 10, 'B': 20, 'C': 30





This is saying ValueError: Index Header1 invalid?

Try index_col=[0] because it doesn't appear your csv first column is 'Header1'.

index_col=[0]



Another example without pandas:


import csv

with open('data_all.csv', newline='') as csvfile:
reader = csv.reader(csvfile, delimiter=',')
dicts = entry: for entry in next(reader)[1:]
for row in reader:
index = 0
for _dict in dicts.values():
index+=1
_dict[row[0]]=row[index]

print(dicts)



' Header2': 'A': ' 1', 'B': ' 2', 'C': ' 3', ' Header3': 'A': ' 10', 'B': ' 20', 'C': ' 30'


' Header2': 'A': ' 1', 'B': ' 2', 'C': ' 3', ' Header3': 'A': ' 10', 'B': ' 20', 'C': ' 30'
