activity=csv.reader(open('activity(delimited).csv')
data = np.array([activity])
url_data = data[:, 70]
I am trying to extract a column from the CSV file. This column has a list of URLs that I would like to read. However every time I run these few lines, I get:-
IndexError: too many indices for array
There are a bunch of very similar issues on StackOverflow [post 1], [post 2].
For your reference, there is a much cleaner way of achieving this.
genfromtxt will suit your requirements pretty well. From the documentation,
Load data from a text file, with missing values handled as specified.
Each line past the first skip_header lines is split at the delimiter character, and characters following the comments character are discarded.
You would need to do something like this.
from numpy import genfromtxt
my_data = genfromtxt('activity(delimited)', delimiter=',')
Given that yours is a csv, the delimiter is a ,.
my_data should now hold a numpy ndarray.
