How do we add an index to this csv with pandas?

CodePudding user response：

If you read csv file as dataframe, pandas will automatically generate index. You don't need to do something else.

So, just read it and write again as below

import pandas as pd

df = pd.read_csv("your_file.csv")
df.to_csv("your_file_to_save.csv")
