Never Worry About Parsing Errors Again While Reading CSV with Pandas

Pandas isn't smart (yet) to read messy CSV files.

Its read_csv method assumes the data source to be in a standard tabular format. Thus, any irregularity in data raises parsing errors, which may require manual intervention.

Instead, try CleverCSV. It detects the format of CSVs and makes it easier to load them, saving you tons of time.
