Hi, That was a mistake on my part. Now fixed. Long story short, a csv file would be an error as it cannot be interpreted as a .tsv file.

Hi Zexu, I am impressed. It's actually not trivial as .csv data can have commas in the strings, and also hidden . Was your solution able to cope with these?

Yes, I've seen that point. I took a lot of effort to craft a regex to ignore the comma within the quoted fields.

And I'm surprised how challenging it could be, for those CS beginners, but also interesting.
