How can I parse through a csv file within the DJANGO framework?

Question

I am creating a scientific based website that does some calculation and plots. In order to do those calculations, I need to use some data that is in a csv file. The csv file has around 10,000 columns and 7 rows. Will I be able to do this with DJANGO?

You don't. You use Python's CSV handling.

python has a CSV module that you can use within Django.

Simple. Backend of Django is just python, which means you can use any python packages and what not in your views for example. You can probably start off here.

Edit: If you just parse the csv, you can use that data any way you'd like in django, maybe passing to the frontend template, storing it in the database, etc.
