  • thanks for the explicit example. i'm a little confused though; where are inputting the csv file that's to be sorted/counted? Commented Jul 18, 2018 at 0:56
  • Thanks again and apologies for the oversight. I used the above code and encountered this error. Any idea what it means? Is it saying that there's a data element that is not an integer?: ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: '\x1a' Commented Jul 20, 2018 at 2:01
  • argh. sorry for all the messages but i figured out that that error was because python can't read the EOF character so i just deleted that row. but now i am getting the problem that the numbers that the script is writing to the output CSV file are all in scientific notation. how can i make it so that the script doesn't do that and instead writes the integer and just the integer in standard notation to file? like fir example the first row of output i am currently getting is of the form: 2.202384070000000000e+08,3.700000000000000000e+01.
