python csv.reader没有指定引用符,Python模块'csv'没有属性'DictReader'

So I am following a Python for Data Science Course on Coursera. I have linked this in case anyone is interested.

They have a Jupyter Notebook to follow along, but I prefer to code in Notepad++ ("NPP") and write it all from scratch as it helps me learn better.

The following code I have literally copy and pasted into NPP

import csv

with open('mpg.csv') as csvfile:

mpg = list(csv.DictReader(csvfile))

print(mpg[:3])

But when I try to run the file, I am getting the following AttributeError

AttributeError: module 'csv' has no attribute 'DictReader'

I am not entirely sure why as I have seen this is indeed a module according to python documentation, and obviously it works on the Jupyter Notebook on Coursera

Something that I thought may be of note is the location in which I saved the 'mpg.csv' file. I have saved it in the same folder (directory?) that the python file is in. But obviously if the location was a problem It wouldn't be throwing out an AttributeError would it?

Thanks in advance for assistance.

Did you happen to name your Python file csv.py? Don't do that! :)

You should avoid naming Python files as keywords or classes.
