Several weeks ago I needed to do something in Ruby that involved processing a large number of CSV files. I was happy to learn there was a good, comprehensive CSV library to make my job easier.
One thing struck me, however, as soon as I started looking for tutorials: none of them covered this library in detail. Most articles I have seen barely touched the surface of what the CSV library can do. I felt determined to get a solid understanding of this part of Ruby, so I started reading every possible tutorial and book chapter on CSV. This two-part series is the result of my endeavors.
