 format.  It allows programmers to say, "write this data in the format preferred

 The simplest example of reading a CSV file::
 
+<<<<<<< local
+    import csv
+    with f = open("some.csv", newline=''):
+	reader = csv.reader(f)
+	for row in reader:
+	    print(row)
+=======
    import csv
    with open('some.csv', newline='') as f:
        reader = csv.reader(f)
        for row in reader:
            print(row)
+>>>>>>> other
 
 Reading a file with an alternate format::
 
+<<<<<<< local
+    import csv
+    with f = open("passwd"):
+	reader = csv.reader(f, delimiter=':', quoting=csv.QUOTE_NONE)
+	for row in reader:
+	    print(row)
+=======
    import csv
    with open('passwd') as f:
        reader = csv.reader(f, delimiter=':', quoting=csv.QUOTE_NONE)
        for row in reader:
            print(row)
+>>>>>>> other
 
 The corresponding simplest possible writing example is::
 
+<<<<<<< local
+    import csv
+    with f = open("some.csv", "w"):
+	writer = csv.writer(f)
+	writer.writerows(someiterable)
+=======
    import csv
    with open('some.csv', 'w') as f:
        writer = csv.writer(f)
        writer.writerows(someiterable)

 Since :func:`open` is used to open a CSV file for reading, the file
 will by default be decoded into unicode using the system default
 encoding (see :func:`locale.getpreferredencoding`).  To decode a file
 using a different encoding, use the ``encoding`` argument of open::
 
+<<<<<<< local
+    import csv
+    f = open("some.csv", newline='', encoding='utf-8'):
+	reader = csv.reader(f)
+	for row in reader:
+	    print(row)
+=======
    import csv
    with open('some.csv', newline='', encoding='utf-8') as f:
        reader = csv.reader(f)
        for row in reader:
            print(row)
+>>>>>>> other
 
 The same applies to writing in something other than the system default
 encoding: specify the encoding argument when opening the output file.
 
 Registering a new dialect::
 
+<<<<<<< local
+    import csv
+    csv.register_dialect('unixpwd', delimiter=':', quoting=csv.QUOTE_NONE)
+    with f = open("passwd"):
+        reader = csv.reader(f, 'unixpwd')
+	for row in reader:
+	    pass
+=======
    import csv
    csv.register_dialect('unixpwd', delimiter=':', quoting=csv.QUOTE_NONE)
    with open('passwd') as f:
        reader = csv.reader(f, 'unixpwd')
+>>>>>>> other
 
 A slightly more advanced use of the reader --- catching and reporting errors::
 
+<<<<<<< local
+    import csv, sys
+    filename = "some.csv"
+    with f = open(filename, newline=''):
+	reader = csv.reader(f)
+	try:
+	    for row in reader:
+		print(row)
+	except csv.Error as e:
+	    sys.exit('file {}, line {}: {}'.format(filename, reader.line_num, e))
+=======
    import csv, sys
    filename = 'some.csv'
    with open(filename, newline='') as f:

 And while the module doesn't directly support parsing strings, it can easily be
 done::
 
-   import csv
-   for row in csv.reader(['one,two,three']):
-       print(row)
+    import csv
