create csv file python

# This action requires the 'csv' module
import csv

# The basic usage is to first define the rows of the csv file:
row_list = [["SN", "Name", "Contribution"],
             [1, "Linus Torvalds", "Linux Kernel"],
             [2, "Tim Berners-Lee", "World Wide Web"],
             [3, "Guido van Rossum", "Python Programming"]]

# And then use the following to create the csv file:
with open('protagonist.csv', 'w', newline='') as file:
    writer = csv.writer(file)
    writer.writerows(row_list)
# This will create a csv file in the current directory
