user input comma in csv

[MynameisAchint]

Hey monks

I am working on a csv file , and my logic includes splitting the csv file with , but when user in a csv file gives a comma , it causes issues . My question is that is there any way to distinguish a user input comma from the comma delimiter of csv file .

I have seen that whenever we have an user input comma , delimiter changes to " .

G'day MynameisAchint,

"I am working on a csv file , and my logic includes splitting the csv file with , but when user in a csv file gives a comma , it causes issues . My question is that is there any way to distinguish a user input comma from the comma delimiter of csv file ."

That looks an awful lot like CSV SPLIT:

"I am working on csv file , viewing as excel . so i am splitting it by comma for formatting . but the problem is when the data itself has comma in it . is there any way to overcome the effect of this comma"

And the homework(?) you'll be handing in will look like the code in txt to csv once you've sorted out the constructor attributes.

I suggest you (MynameisAchint) contact serene_monk and torres09; as you all appear to be working on exactly the same homework(?) task. Furthermore, as you're all in the same timezone, collaboration should be easy. :-)
