在Python3 Pandas中读取/导入CSV文件时编码问题

我正在尝试使用Pandas阅读Movie Lens数据集:http://files.grouplens.org/datasets/movielens/ml-100k/

我正在使用Python 3.4版,我正在按照这里给出的教程“http://www.gregreda.com/2013/10/26/using-pandas-on-the-movielens-dataset/”。

当我尝试使用那里提到的代码读取u.item数据时:

# the movies file contains columns indicating the movie's genres
# let's only load the first five columns of the file with usecols
m_cols = ['movie_id', 'title', 'release_date', 'video_release_date', 'imdb_url']
movies = pd.read_csv('ml-100k/u.item', sep='|', names=m_cols, usecols=range(5), encoding='UTF-8')

我收到以下错误“UnicodeDecodeError:'utf-8'编解码器无法解码位置3中的字节0xe9:无效的连续字节”。

这可能是导致此错误的原因以及解决方案

我尝试将encoding ='utf-8'添加到pd.read_csv(encoding ='utf-8'),但不幸的是它没有解决任何问题。

错误追溯是:

3 个答案:

答案 0 :(得分:2)

如果找到两个可能的技巧来解决问题:

1 /在文本编辑器中打开文件并使用编码“UTF-8”保存文件

===&GT;例如,在Sublime Text中,按照标签:&gt;&gt;&gt;“编辑”&gt;&gt;&gt;“使用编码保存”&gt;&gt;&gt; “UTF-8”

2 /或者只需用python2打开文档......

无法找到更好的解决方案。

答案 1 :(得分:1)

这有点旧,但是我要在这里扔这个,以防其他人碰到它,因为我在2018年11月遇到了同样的问题。

我用文件-i 检查了编码:

user-id

然后将该编码输入pd.read_csv()

$ file -i u.item
u.item: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1

成功!

答案 2 :(得分:1)

想澄清xb353的答案-应该改为-i。否则regular file只会返回'chrome_options': ['download.default_directory=C:/mydownloads', 'download.prompt_for_download=false', 或其他内容。
