Format is like:

CHINA;2002-06-25 00:00:00.000;5,60
CHINA;2002-06-26 00:00:00.000;5,32
CHINA;2002-06-27 00:00:00.000;5,31

and I try to use Python's CSV tools to parse it but cannot understand the paragraph, source:

And while the module doesn’t directly support parsing strings, it can easily be done:

import csv
for row in csv.reader(['one,two,three']):
    print row

Could someone clarify the line ['one,two,three']? How would you use it with format A;B;C?
