Read data from a CSV file

Create a function called read_user_data that reads the first data record from user_data.csv and returns a message in the format shown in Listing 1.

Listing 1: Required output message with values from the first user record.

Name: [Name]
Age: [Age]
Email Address: [Email Address]

Use csv.DictReader so the values are accessed through the column names rather than numerical positions. Print the returned message to display it in the console.

The supplied create_sample_file helper creates a complete disposable input file, so no other exercise must be completed first.

TipString interpolation and new lines

Use an f-string to insert values into text, for example, f"Name: {user['Name']}". Use \n to add a new line inside a string.

Use the supplied helper and function template in Listing 2.

Listing 2: Sample-file helper and function template for reading the first user record.

import csv
from pathlib import Path


def create_sample_file(file_path: Path) -> None:
    with file_path.open("w", newline="", encoding="utf-8") as file:
        writer = csv.writer(file)
        writer.writerow(["Name", "Age", "Email Address"])
        writer.writerow(["Alex", 19, "alex@example.com"])


def read_user_data(file_path: Path) -> str:
    # Read and format the first data record beneath the CSV header.
    raise NotImplementedError

Create a disposable file with create_sample_file, call read_user_data, and verify that the returned message contains all three values.
