title: How to open a file in pandas
body: <p>Having difficulty opening a csv file in pandas, I have tried:</p>
  
  <pre><code>data = pd.read_csv("/home/me/Programming/data/sample.csv")
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>That did not work, so I tried:</p>
  
  <pre><code>import os
  cwd = os.getcwd()
  
  data = pd.read_csv(cwd + "sample.csv")
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and that doesn't work either, just says that file does not exist, but it's there in the file manager clear as day.</p>
