Description
Pandas version checks
-
I have checked that this issue has not already been reported.
-
I have confirmed this bug exists on the latest version of pandas.
-
I have confirmed this bug exists on the main branch of pandas.
Reproducible Example
import pandas as pd
import csv
import sys
data = [['a', 'b"c', 'def"'], ['a2', None, '"c']]
# no escaping
df = pd.DataFrame(data)
print(df.to_csv(sep='\t', index=False, header=False, quotechar='"', escapechar='\\', quoting=csv.QUOTE_NONE))
print(df.to_csv(sep='\t', index=False, header=False, quotechar='"', escapechar='\\', quoting=csv.QUOTE_NONE, doublequote=False))
# escaping
csv_writer = csv.writer(sys.stdout, delimiter='\t', quotechar='"', escapechar='\\', quoting=csv.QUOTE_NONE)
for r in data:
_ = csv_writer.writerow(r)
Issue Description
to_csv()
doesn't escape quotechar
when quoting=csv.QUOTE_NONE
.
a b"c def"
a2 "c
Expected Behavior
quotechar
gets escaped using escapechar
even when quoting=csv.QUOTE_NONE
.
This is the behavior of the csv module.
a b\"c def\"
a2 \"c
