how to deal with first row as a column when reading a csv in python

To deal with the first row as a column when reading a csv in python, you can use the header parameter in the read_csv function of the pandas module. The header parameter allows you to specify which row to use as the column labels.

Example:

main.py
import pandas as pd

df = pd.read_csv('file.csv', header=[0])
print(df)
72 chars
5 lines

Here, we are passing a list [0] to the header parameter to specify that the first row should be used as the column labels. This will result in the first row being read as data instead of column headers.
