Reading a CSV file using Python 3

Question

I have recently learnt how to read CSV files using Python 3, and have been playing around with my code and have managed to read either the whole document or certain columns.  Now I am trying to read only certain records that contain a certain value.

For example I want to read all records where the car is blue, how would I make it read only those records?

import csv

with open('cars.csv') as csvfile:
    reader = csv.DictReader(csvfile)
    for row in reader:
        print(row['ID'], row['Make'], row['Colour'])

Answer 1

A simple "if" statement should suffice. you can try this :

import csv

with open('Cars.csv') as csvfile:
    reader = csv.DictReader(csvfile)
    for row in reader:
        if row['Colour'] == 'blue':
            print(row['ID'] ,row ['Make'],row ['Colour'])
