would much rather have the Python script handle the whole task without

I suspect using csv is overkill, but you'd need to be working with
Dialects by first creating a Dialect, then applying the Dialect to your
source data.
I've not done that, and for your use case, I think I'd do something like:
filedata = '''1001, 342

Now I have a nice collection of examples, which to me are worth more
than the sometimes inscrutable docs.
My thanks to you three for taking the time to create the examples, and
accompany them with understandable explanations.
BTW I like Summerfield's book a lot, but he let me down on p.162.
