New Revision: 42418
Modified:
 python/trunk/Doc/lib/libcsv.tex
Log:
Fix broken example of csv.reader use (it returns an iterator, which isn't
indexable) by using the same 'for' construct as all other examples. (Also
emphasizes that reading from a random iterable is no different than reading
from a file.)
