title: What to do in "pd.read_csv" when "ParserError: Error tokenizing data. C error: Expected 1 fields in line 9, saw 5" is returned?
body: <p>This is the file created as temp.cvs</p>
  
  <p><a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/XNhTj.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer">temp.csv</a></p>
  
  <p>I've made the above file into temp.csv.
  Then ran the following.</p>
  
  <pre class="lang-py prettyprint-override"><code>df=pd.read_csv("temp.csv")
  df
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Then I got</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>ParserError: Error tokenizing data. C error: Expected 1 fields in line
    9, saw 5</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>So I tried </p>
  
  <pre class="lang-py prettyprint-override"><code>df=pd.read_csv("temp.csv",error_bad_lines=False)
  df
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and got.</p>
