Question

我有一个用UTF-16编码的CSV文本文件（以便在其他人使用Excel时保留Unicode字符）但是当使用Pandas 0.9.0执行read_csv时，我得到了这个神秘的错误：

df = pd.read_csv('data.txt',encoding='utf-16',sep='\t',header=0)
df.head()

使用基于this example的csv.reader逐行读取数据意味着我的数据格式不正确：

from io import BytesIO
import csv

with open('data.txt','rb') as f:
    r = f.read().decode('utf-16').encode('utf-8')
    for l in csv.reader(BytesIO(r),delimiter='\t'):
        print l

['Country', 'State/City', 'Title', 'Date', 'Catalogue', 'Wikipedia Election Page', 'Wikipedia Individual Page', 'Electoral Institution in Country', 'Twitter', 'CANDIDATE NAME 1', 'CANDIDATE NAME 2']
['Venezuela', 'N/A', 'President', '10/7/12', 'Hugo Rafael Chavez Frias', 'Hugo Ch\xc3\xa1vez', 'Hugo Ch\xc3\xa1vez', 'Hugo Chavez', 'Hugo Ch\xc3\xa1vez Fr\xc3\xadas', 'Hugo Chavez', 'Hugo Ch\xc3\xa1vez']

在pandas.read_csv可以读取utf-16文件之前，是否有一些预处理，read_csv中的添加选项或其他需要完成的操作？谢谢！

这是一个错误，我想是因为csv读者在开始时传回了一个额外的空行。如果我这样做，它在Python 2.7.3和pandas 0.9.1上工作：

In [36]: pd.read_csv(BytesIO(fh.read().decode('UTF-16').encode('UTF-8')), sep='\t', header=0)
Out[36]: 
<class 'pandas.core.frame.DataFrame'>
Int64Index: 50 entries, 0 to 49
Data columns:
Country                             43  non-null values
State/City                          43  non-null values
Title                               43  non-null values
Date                                43  non-null values

我在这里报告了错误：https://github.com/pydata/pandas/issues/2418 在github master上，它不幸导致c-parser中的段错误。我们会解决它。

Answer 2

Python3：

with open('data.txt',encoding='UTF-16') as f:
    df = pd.read_csv(f)

Answer 3

from StringIO import StringIO
import pandas as pd

a = ['Venezuela', 'N/A', 'President', '10/7/12', 'Hugo Rafael Chavez Frias', 'Hugo Ch\xc3\xa1vez', 'Hugo Ch\xc3\xa1vez', 'Hugo Chavez', 'Hugo Ch\xc3\xa1vez Fr\xc3\xadas', 'Hugo Chavez', 'Hugo Ch\xc3\xa1vez']

pd.read_csv(StringIO('\t'.join(a)), delimiter='\t')

在这里工作可以上传数据的头部，以便我可以测试
