title: Read an entire data set but excluding the headers?
body: <p>I'm given a .csv file, which is a data file from a weather station that includes date, time, temperature, dewpoint, humidity, etc. This is what I have so far in a Python file:</p>
  
  <pre><code>import math
  import pandas as pd
  import math
  import numpy
  openfile=pd.read_csv('KOAK.csv','r',delimiter=',',skiprows=8,header=None)
  f1=openfile.read()
  openfile.close()
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I am skipping the first 8 rows as these contain header information. How can I fix this Python code to read the entire data set but excluding the headers? I got the following error messages:</p>
  
  <pre><code>File "mesowest3.py", line 7, in &lt;module&gt;
      f1=openfile.read()

      return object.__getattribute__(self, name)
