How to read lines from a file into a multidimensional array (or an array of lists) in python
Question: I have a file with a format similar to this:

    
    
    a,3,4,2,1
    3,2,1,a,2
    

I want to read the file and create an array of lists

in a way that:

    
    
    array[0] = ['a','3','4','2','1']
    array[1] = ['3','2','1','a','2']
    

How can I do that?

So far I am stuck with:

    
    
    f = open('./urls-eu.csv', 'r')
    for line in f:
        arr = line.split(',')
    print arr
    

I am really new to python.


Answer: Batteries included:

    
    
    >>> import csv
    >>> array = list( csv.reader( open( r'./urls-eu.csv' ) ) )
    >>> array[0]
    ['a', '3', '4', '2', '1']
    >>> array[1]
    ['3', '2', '1', 'a', '2']
