# 
# == Description
# 
# Welcome to the new and improved CSV.
# 
# This version of the CSV library began its life as FasterCSV.  FasterCSV was
# intended as a replacement to Ruby's then standard CSV library.  It was
# designed to address concerns users of that library had and it had three
# primary goals:
# 
# 1.  Be significantly faster than CSV while remaining a pure Ruby library.
# 2.  Use a smaller and easier to maintain code base.  (FasterCSV eventually
#     grew larger, was also but considerably richer in features.  The parsing
#     core remains quite small.)
# 3.  Improve on the CSV interface.
# 
# Obviously, the last one is subjective.  I did try to defer to the original
# interface whenever I didn't have a compelling reason to change it though, so
# hopefully this won't be too radically different.
# 
# We must have met our goals because FasterCSV was renamed to CSV and replaced
# the original library.
# 
# == What's Different From the Old CSV?
# 
# I'm sure I'll miss something, but I'll try to mention most of the major
# differences I am aware of, to help others quickly get up to speed:
# 
# === CSV Parsing
# 
# * This library has a stricter parser and will throw MalformedCSVErrors on
#   problematic data.
# * This library has a less liberal idea of a line ending than CSV.  What you
#   set as the <tt>:row_sep</tt> is law.  It can auto-detect your line endings
#   though.
# * The old library returned empty lines as <tt>[nil]</tt>.  This library calls
#   them <tt>[]</tt>.
# * This library has a much faster parser.
# 
# === Interface
# 
# * CSV now uses Hash-style parameters to set options.
# * CSV no longer has generate_row() or parse_row().
# * The old CSV's Reader and Writer classes have been dropped.
# * CSV::open() is now more like Ruby's open().
# * CSV objects now support most standard IO methods.
# * CSV now has a new() method used to wrap objects like String and IO for
#   reading and writing.
# * CSV::generate() is different from the old method.
# * CSV no longer supports partial reads.  It works line-by-line.
# * CSV no longer allows the instance methods to override the separators for
#   performance reasons.  They must be set in the constructor.
# 
# If you use this library and find yourself missing any functionality I have
# trimmed, please {let me know}[mailto:james@grayproductions.net].
# 
# == Documentation
# 
# See CSV for documentation.
# 
# == What is CSV, really?
# 
# CSV maintains a pretty strict definition of CSV taken directly from
# {the RFC}[http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4180.txt].  I relax the rules in only one
# place and that is to make using this library easier.  CSV will parse all valid
# CSV.
# 
# What you don't want to do is feed CSV invalid data.  Because of the way the
# CSV format works, it's common for a parser to need to read until the end of
# the file to be sure a field is invalid.  This eats a lot of time and memory.
# 
# Luckily, when working with invalid CSV, Ruby's built-in methods will almost
# always be superior in every way.  For example, parsing non-quoted fields is as
# easy as:
# 
#   data.split(",")

# This class provides a complete interface to CSV files and data.  It offers
# tools to enable you to read and write to and from Strings or IO objects, as
# needed.
# 
# == Reading
# 
# === From a File
# 
# ==== A Line at a Time
# 
#   CSV.foreach("path/to/file.csv") do |row|
#     # use row here...
#   end
# 
# ==== All at Once
# 
#   arr_of_arrs = CSV.read("path/to/file.csv")
# 
# === From a String
# 
# ==== A Line at a Time
# 
#   CSV.parse("CSV,data,String") do |row|
#     # use row here...
#   end
# 
# ==== All at Once
# 
#   arr_of_arrs = CSV.parse("CSV,data,String")
# 
# == Writing
# 
# === To a File
# 
#   CSV.open("path/to/file.csv", "w") do |csv|
#     csv << ["row", "of", "CSV", "data"]
#     csv << ["another", "row"]
#     # ...
#   end
# 
# === To a String
# 
#   csv_string = CSV.generate do |csv|
#     csv << ["row", "of", "CSV", "data"]
#     csv << ["another", "row"]
#     # ...
#   end
# 
# == Convert a Single Line
# 
#   csv_string = ["CSV", "data"].to_csv   # to CSV
#   csv_array  = "CSV,String".parse_csv   # from CSV
# 
# == Shortcut Interface
#

  # This method allows you to serialize an Array of Ruby objects to a String or
  # File of CSV data.  This is not as powerful as Marshal or YAML, but perhaps
  # useful for spreadsheet and database interaction.
  # 
  # Out of the box, this method is intended to work with simple data objects or
  # Structs.  It will serialize a list of instance variables and/or
  # Struct.members().
  # 
  # If you need need more complicated serialization, you can control the process
  # by adding methods to the class to be serialized.
  # 
  # A class method csv_meta() is responsible for returning the first row of the
  # document (as an Array).  This row is considered to be a Hash of the form
  # key_1,value_1,key_2,value_2,...  CSV::load() expects to find a class key
  # with a value of the stringified class name and CSV::dump() will create this,
  # if you do not define this method.  This method is only called on the first
  # object of the Array.
  # 
  # The next method you can provide is an instance method called csv_headers().
  # This method is expected to return the second line of the document (again as
  # an Array), which is to be used to give each column a header.  By default,
  # CSV::load() will set an instance variable if the field header starts with an
  # @ character or call send() passing the header as the method name and
  # the field value as an argument.  This method is only called on the first
  # object of the Array.
  # 
  # Finally, you can provide an instance method called csv_dump(), which will
  # be passed the headers.  This should return an Array of fields that can be
  # serialized for this object.  This method is called once for every object in
  # the Array.

  # This method opens an IO object, and wraps that with CSV.  This is intended
  # as the primary interface for writing a CSV file.
  # 
  # You may pass any +args+ Ruby's open() understands followed by an optional
  # Hash containing any +options+ CSV::new() understands.
  # 
  # This method works like Ruby's open() call, in that it will pass a CSV object
  # to a provided block and close it when the block terminates, or it will
  # return the CSV object when no block is provided.  (*Note*: This is different
  # from the Ruby 1.8 CSV library which passed rows to the block.  Use
  # CSV::foreach() for that behavior.)
  # 
  # An opened CSV object will delegate to many IO methods, for convenience.  You
  # may call:
  # 
  # * binmode()
  # * close()
  # * close_read()
  # * close_write()
  # * closed?()
  # * eof()
  # * eof?()
  # * fcntl()
  # * fileno()
  # * flush()
  # * fsync()
  # * ioctl()
  # * isatty()
  # * pid()
  # * pos()
  # * reopen()
  # * seek()
  # * stat()
  # * sync()
  # * sync=()
  # * tell()
  # * to_i()
  # * to_io()
  # * tty?()

  # provide a +block+ which will be called with each row of the String in turn,
  # or just use the returned Array of Arrays (when no +block+ is given).
  # 
  # You pass your +str+ to read from, and an optional +options+ Hash containing

  # 
  # This constructor will wrap either a String or IO object passed in +data+ for
  # reading and/or writing.  In addition to the CSV instance methods, several IO
  # methods are delegated.  (See CSV::open() for a complete list.)  If you pass
  # a String for +data+, you can later retrieve it (after writing to it, for
  # example) with CSV.string().
  # 
  # Note that a wrapped String will be positioned at at the beginning (for 
  # reading).  If you want it at the end (for writing), use CSV::generate().
  # If you want any other positioning, pass a preset StringIO object instead.
  # 
  # You may set any reading and/or writing preferences in the +options+ Hash.  
  # Available options are:
  # 
  # <b><tt>:col_sep</tt></b>::            The String placed between each field.
  # <b><tt>:row_sep</tt></b>::            The String appended to the end of each
  #                                       row.  This can be set to the special
  #                                       <tt>:auto</tt> setting, which requests
  #                                       that CSV automatically discover this
  #                                       from the data.  Auto-discovery reads
  #                                       ahead in the data looking for the next
  #                                       <tt>"\r\n"</tt>, <tt>"\n"</tt>, or
  #                                       <tt>"\r"</tt> sequence.  A sequence
  #                                       will be selected even if it occurs in
  #                                       a quoted field, assuming that you
  #                                       would have the same line endings
  #                                       there.  If none of those sequences is
  #                                       found, +data+ is <tt>ARGF</tt>,
  #                                       <tt>STDIN</tt>, <tt>STDOUT</tt>, or
  #                                       <tt>STDERR</tt>, or the stream is only
  #                                       available for output, the default
  #                                       <tt>$INPUT_RECORD_SEPARATOR</tt>
  #                                       (<tt>$/</tt>) is used.  Obviously,
  #                                       discovery takes a little time.  Set
  #                                       manually if speed is important.
  # <b><tt>:quote_char</tt></b>::         The character used to quote fields.
  #                                       This has to be a single character
  #                                       String.  This is useful for
  #                                       application that incorrectly use
  #                                       <tt>'</tt> as the quote character
  #                                       instead of the correct <tt>"</tt>.
  #                                       CSV will always consider a double
  #                                       sequence this character to be an
  #                                       escaped quote.
  # <b><tt>:converters</tt></b>::         An Array of names from the Converters
  #                                       Hash and/or lambdas that handle custom
  #                                       conversion.  A single converter
  #                                       doesn't have to be in an Array.
  # <b><tt>:unconverted_fields</tt></b>:: If set to +true+, an
  #                                       unconverted_fields() method will be
  #                                       added to all returned rows (Array or
  #                                       CSV::Row) that will return the fields
  #                                       as they were before conversion.  Note
  #                                       that <tt>:headers</tt> supplied by
  #                                       Array or String were not fields of the
  #                                       document and thus will have an empty
  #                                       Array attached.
  # <b><tt>:headers</tt></b>::            If set to <tt>:first_row</tt> or 
  #                                       +true+, the initial row of the CSV
  #                                       file will be treated as a row of
  #                                       headers.  If set to an Array, the
  #                                       contents will be used as the headers.
  #                                       If set to a String, the String is run
  #                                       through a call of CSV::parse_line() to
  #                                       produce an Array of headers.  This
  #                                       setting causes CSV.shift() to return
  #                                       rows as CSV::Row objects instead of
  #                                       Arrays and CSV.read() to return
  #                                       CSV::Table objects instead of an Array
  #                                       of Arrays.
  # <b><tt>:return_headers</tt></b>::     When +false+, header rows are silently
  #                                       swallowed.  If set to +true+, header
  #                                       rows are returned in a CSV::Row object
  #                                       with identical headers and
  #                                       fields (save that the fields do not go
  #                                       through the converters).
  # <b><tt>:header_converters</tt></b>::  Identical in functionality to

  # <b><tt>:skip_blanks</tt></b>::        When set to a +true+ value, CSV will
