How do I import a csv file

Question

I'm trying to import a file :

import pandas as pd
import os

Fig = pd.read_csv("Dataset.csv")

But it prompts an error that says :

"UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0x88 in position 14: invalid start byte"

Answer 1

Your encoding is wrong. Use the encoding parameter to set it. For example,

pd.read_csv("Dataset.csv", encoding="utf8")
