        The API of the csv module in Python 2 is drastically different from
        the csv module in Python 3. This is due, for the most part, to the
        difference between str in Python 2 and Python 3.
        
        The semantics of Python 3's version are more useful because they support
        unicode natively, while Python 2's csv does not.
        
        Installation
        ============
        
        .. code-block:: sh
        
            pip install backports.csv
        
        Usage
        =====
        
        First make sure you're starting your file off right:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
            from backports import csv
        
        
        Then be careful with your files to handle the encoding.
        I suggest using ``io.TextIOWrapper``,
        opening your file in binary mode,
        and declaring your desired encoding when constructing
        your ``TextIOWrapper``.
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
            from backports import csv
            from io import TextIOWrapper
        
            def read_csv(filename):
                with TextIOWrapper(open(filename, 'rb'), encoding='utf-8') as f:
                    reader = csv.reader(f)
                    for row in reader:
                        yield row
        
            def write_csv(filename, rows):
                with TextIOWrapper(open(filename, 'wb'), encoding='utf-8') as f:
                    writer = csv.writer(f)
                    for row in rows:
                        writer.writerow(row)
        
        License
        =======
        
        This is a port of the csv module in the Python 3 standard libary.
        Because of this, backports.csv follows the same license as Python,
        whatever that may be at any given point in time.
