  |csvsimple| provides a simple \LaTeX\ interface for the processing of files with
  comma separated values (CSV). |csvsimple| relies heavily on the key value
  syntax from |pgfkeys| which results (hopefully) in an easy way of usage.
  Filtering and table generation is especially supported. Since the package
  is considered as a lightweight tool, there is no support for data sorting
  or data base storage.

\section{Introduction}%
The |csvsimple| package is applied to the processing of
CSV\footnote{CSV file: file with comma separated values.} files.
This processing is controlled by key value assignments according to the
syntax of |pgfkeys| \cite{tantau:2010c}. Sample applications of the package
are tabular lists, serial letters, and charts.

An alternative to |csvsimple| is the |datatool| package \cite{talbot:2012a}
which provides considerably more functions like exchange of separator and
delimiter symbols or sorting of data.
|csvsimple| has a different approach for the user interface and
is deliberately restricted to some basic functions with fast
processing speed.


\subsection{Loading the Package}
The package |csvsimple| loads the packages
|pgfkeys| \cite{tantau:2010c} and |ifthen| \cite{carlisle:2001b}.
|csvsimple| itself is loaded in the usual manner in the preamble:
\begin{dispListing}
\usepackage{csvsimple}
\end{dispListing}


\subsection{First Steps}
Every line of a processable CSV file has to contain an identical amount of
comma\footnote{See \refKey{/csv/separator} for other separators than comma.} separated values. The curly braces |{}| of \TeX\ groups can be used
to mask a block which may contain commas not to be processed as separators.

The first line of such a CSV file is usually but not necessarily a header line
which contains the identifiers for each column.

%-- file embedded for simplicity --
\begin{tcbverbatimwrite}{grade.csv}
name,givenname,matriculation,gender,grade
Maier,Hans,12345,m,1.0
Huber,Anna,23456,f,2.3
Wei\ss{}b\"{a}ck,Werner,34567,m,5.0
\end{tcbverbatimwrite}
%-- end embedded file --

\csvlisting{grade}

The most simple way to display a CSV file in tabular form is the processing
with the \refCom{csvautotabular} command.

\begin{dispExample}
\csvautotabular{grade.csv}
\end{dispExample}

Typically, one would use \refCom{csvreader} instead of |\csvautotabular| to
gain full control over the interpretation of the included data.

In the following example, the entries of the header line are automatically
assigned to \TeX\ macros which may be used deliberately.

\begin{dispExample}
\begin{tabular}{|l|c|}\hline%
\bfseries Person & \bfseries Matr.~No.
\csvreader[head to column names]{grade.csv}{}%
{\\\givenname\ \name & \matriculation}%
  \\\hline
\end{tabular}
\end{dispExample}

\newpage
|\csvreader| is controlled by a plenty of options. For example, for table
applications line breaks are easily inserted by
\refKey{/csv/late after line}. This defines a macro execution just before
the following line.
Additionally, the assignment of columns to \TeX\ macros is shown in a non automated
way.

\begin{dispExample}
\begin{tabular}{|r|l|c|}\hline%
& Person & Matr.~No.\\\hline\hline
\csvreader[late after line=\\\hline]%
  {grade.csv}{name=\name,givenname=\firstname,matriculation=\matnumber}%
  {\thecsvrow & \firstname~\name & \matnumber}%
\end{tabular}
\end{dispExample}

An even more comfortable way to create a table is setting
appropriate option keys. Note, that this gives you the possibility to create a
|pgfkeys| style which contains the whole table creation.

\begin{dispExample}
\csvreader[tabular=|r|l|c|,
    table head=\hline & Person & Matr.~No.\\\hline\hline,
    late after line=\\\hline]%
  {grade.csv}{name=\name,givenname=\firstname,matriculation=\matnumber}%
  {\thecsvrow & \firstname~\name & \matnumber}%
\end{dispExample}

The next example shows such a style definition with the convenience macro
\refCom{csvstyle}. Here, we see again the automated assignment of header
entries to column names by \refKey{/csv/head to column names}.
For this, the header entries have to be without spaces and special characters.
But you can always assign entries to canonical macro names by hand like in the examples
above.

\begin{dispExample}
\csvstyle{myTableStyle}{tabular=|r|l|c|,
    table head=\hline & Person & Matr.~No.\\\hline\hline,
    late after line=\\\hline,
    head to column names}

\csvreader[myTableStyle]{grade.csv}{}%
  {\thecsvrow & \givenname~\name & \matriculation}%
\end{dispExample}

\newpage
Another way to address columns is to use their roman numbers.
The direct addressing is done by |\csvcoli|, |\csvcolii|, |\csvcoliii|, \ldots:

\begin{dispExample}
\csvreader[tabular=|r|l|c|,
    table head=\hline & Person & Matr.~No.\\\hline\hline,
    late after line=\\\hline]%
  {grade.csv}{}%
  {\thecsvrow & \csvcolii~\csvcoli & \csvcoliii}%
\end{dispExample}

And yet another method to assign macros to columns is to use arabic numbers
for the assignment:

\begin{dispExample}
\csvreader[tabular=|r|l|c|,
    table head=\hline & Person & Matr.~No.\\\hline\hline,
    late after line=\\\hline]%
  {grade.csv}{1=\name,2=\firstname,3=\matnumber}%
  {\thecsvrow & \firstname~\name & \matnumber}%
\end{dispExample}

For recurring applications, the |pgfkeys| syntax allows to create own styles
for a consistent and centralized design. The following example is easily
modified to obtain more or less option settings.

\begin{dispExample}
\csvset{myStudentList/.style={%
  tabular=|r|l|c|,
  table head=\hline & Person & #1\\\hline\hline,
  late after line=\\\hline,
  column names={name=\name,givenname=\firstname}
  }}

\csvreader[myStudentList={Matr.~No.}]{grade.csv}{matriculation=\matnumber}%
{\thecsvrow & \firstname~\name & \matnumber}%
\hfill%
\csvreader[myStudentList={Grade}]{grade.csv}{grade=\grade}%
{\thecsvrow & \firstname~\name & \grade}%
\end{dispExample}

\newpage
Alternatively, column names can be set by \refCom{csvnames}
and style definitions by \refCom{csvstyle}.
With this, the last example is rewritten as follows:

\begin{dispExample}
\csvnames{myNames}{1=\name,2=\firstname,3=\matnumber,5=\grade}
\csvstyle{myStudentList}{tabular=|r|l|c|,
  table head=\hline & Person & #1\\\hline\hline,
  late after line=\\\hline, myNames}

\csvreader[myStudentList={Matr.~No.}]{grade.csv}{}%
{\thecsvrow & \firstname~\name & \matnumber}%
\hfill%
\csvreader[myStudentList={Grade}]{grade.csv}{}%
{\thecsvrow & \firstname~\name & \grade}%
\end{dispExample}

The data lines of a CSV file can also be filtered. In the following example,
a certificate is printed only for students with grade unequal to 5.0.

\begin{dispExample}
\csvreader[filter not equal={\grade}{5.0}]%
  {grade.csv}{1=\name,2=\firstname,3=\matnumber,4=\gender,5=\grade}%
  {\begin{center}\Large\bfseries Certificate in Mathematics\end{center}
  \large\ifthenelse{\equal{\gender}{f}}{Ms.}{Mr.}
  \firstname~\name, matriculation number \matnumber, has passed the test
  in mathematics with grade \grade.\par\ldots\par
  }%
\end{dispExample}

\section{Macros for the Processing of CSV Files}\label{sec:makros}%

\begin{docCommand}{csvreader}{\oarg{options}\marg{file name}\marg{assignments}\marg{command list}}
  |\csvreader| reads the file denoted by \meta{file name} line by line.
  Every line of the file has to contain an identical amount of
  comma separated values. The curly braces |{}| of \TeX\ groups can be used
  to mask a block which may contain commas not to be processed as separators.\smallskip

  The first line of such a CSV file is by default but not necessarily
  processed as a header line which contains the identifiers for each column.
  The entries of this line can be used to give \meta{assignments} to \TeX\ macros
  to address the columns. The number of entries of this first line
  determines the accepted number of entries for all following lines.
  Every line which contains a higher or lower number of entries is ignored
  during standard processing.\smallskip

  The \meta{assignments} are given by key value pairs
  \mbox{\meta{name}|=|\meta{macro}}. Here, \meta{name} is an entry from the
  header line \emph{or} the arabic number of the addressed column.
  \meta{macro} is some \TeX\ macro which gets the content of the addressed column.\smallskip

  The \meta{command list} is executed for every accepted data line. Inside the
  \meta{command list} is applicable:
  \begin{itemize}
  \item \auxCommand{thecsvrow} or the counter |csvrow| which contains the number of the
    current data line (starting with 1).
  \item \auxCommand{csvcoli}, \auxCommand{csvcolii}, \auxCommand{csvcoliii}, \ldots,
    which contain the contents of the column entries of the current data line.
    Alternatively can be used:
  \item \meta{macro} from the \meta{assignments} to have a logical
    addressing of a column entry.
  \end{itemize}
  Note, that the \meta{command list} is allowed to contain |\par| and
  that all macro definitions are made global to be used for table applications.\smallskip

  The processing of the given CSV file can be controlled by various
  \meta{options} given as key value list. The feasible option keys
  are described in section \ref{sec:schluessel} from page \pageref{sec:schluessel}.

\begin{dispExample}
\csvreader[tabular=|r|l|l|, table head=\hline, late after line=\\,
           late after last line=\\\hline]{grade.csv}%
  {name=\name,givenname=\firstname,grade=\grade}%
  {\grade & \firstname~\name & \csvcoliii}
\end{dispExample}

Mainly, the |\csvreader| command consists of a \refCom{csvloop} macro with
following parameters:\par
|\csvloop{|\meta{options}|, file=|\meta{file name}|, column names=|\meta{assignments}|,|\\
  \hspace*{2cm} |command=|\meta{command list}|}|\par
  Therefore, the application of the keys \refKey{/csv/file} and \refKey{/csv/command}
is useless for |\csvreader|.
\end{docCommand}

\begin{docCommand}{csvloop}{\marg{options}}
  Usually, \refCom{csvreader} may be preferred instead of |\csvloop|.
  \refCom{csvreader} is based on |\csvloop| which takes a mandatory list of
  \meta{options} in key value syntax.
  This list of \meta{options} controls the total processing. Especially,
  it has to contain the CSV file name.
\begin{dispExample}
\csvloop{file={grade.csv}, column names={name=\name}, command=\name,
  before reading={List of students:\ },
  late after line={{,}\ }, late after last line=.}
\end{dispExample}
\end{docCommand}

\clearpage
\begin{docCommand}{csvautotabular}{\oarg{options}\marg{file name}}
  |\csvautotabular| is an abbreviation for the application of the option key
  \refKey{/csv/autotabular} together with other \meta{options} to \refCom{csvloop}.
  This macro reads the whole CSV file denoted by \meta{file name}
  with an automated formatting.
\begin{dispExample}
\csvautotabular{grade.csv}
\end{dispExample}
\begin{dispExample}
\csvautotabular[filter equal={\csvcoliv}{f}]{grade.csv}
\end{dispExample}
\end{docCommand}


\begin{docCommand}{csvautolongtable}{\oarg{options}\marg{file name}}
  |csvautolongtable| is an abbreviation for the application of the option key
  \refKey{/csv/autolongtable} together with other \meta{options} to \refCom{csvloop}.
  This macro reads the whole CSV file denoted by \meta{file name}
  with an automated formatting.
  For application, the package |longtable| is required which has to be
  loaded in the preamble.
\begin{dispListing}
\csvautolongtable{grade.csv}
\end{dispListing}
\csvautolongtable{grade.csv}
\end{docCommand}


\clearpage

\begin{docCommand}{csvset}{\marg{options}}
  Sets \meta{options} for every following
  \refCom{csvreader} and \refCom{csvloop}. For example, this command may
  be used for style definitions.
\begin{dispExample}
\csvset{grade list/.style=
    {column names={name=\name,givenname=\firstname,grade=\grade}},
  passed/.style={filter not equal={\grade}{5.0}} }

The following students passed the test in mathematics:
\csvreader[grade list,passed]{grade.csv}{}{\firstname\ \name\ (\grade); }%
\end{dispExample}
\end{docCommand}


\begin{docCommand}{csvstyle}{\marg{Stilname}\marg{options}}
  Abbreviation for |\csvset{|\meta{style name}|/.style=|\marg{options}|}|
  to define a new style.
\end{docCommand}

\begin{docCommand}{csvnames}{\marg{Stilname}\marg{Zuweisungsliste}}
  Abbreviation for |\csvset{|\meta{style name}|/.style={column names=|\marg{assignments}|}}|
  to define additional \meta{assignments} of macros to columns.
\begin{dispExample}
\csvnames{grade list}{name=\name,givenname=\firstname,grade=\grade}
\csvstyle{passed}{filter not equal={\grade}{5.0}}

The following students passed the test in mathematics:
\csvreader[grade list,passed]{grade.csv}{}{\firstname\ \name\ (\grade); }%
\end{dispExample}
\end{docCommand}


\begin{docCommand}{csvheadset}{\marg{assignments}}
  For some special cases, this command can be used to change the
  \meta{assignments} of macros to columns during execution of
  \refCom{csvreader} and \refCom{csvloop}.
\begin{dispExample}
\csvreader{grade.csv}{}%
  { \csvheadset{name=\n} \fbox{\n}
    \csvheadset{givenname=\n} \ldots\ \fbox{\n}  }%
\end{dispExample}
\end{docCommand}

\clearpage

\begin{docCommand}{csviffirstrow}{\marg{then macros}\marg{else macros}}
  Inside the command list of \refCom{csvreader}, the \meta{then macros}
  are executed for the first data line, and the \meta{else macros}
  are executed for all following lines.
\begin{dispExample}
\csvreader[tabbing, head to column names, table head=\hspace*{3cm}\=\kill]%
  {grade.csv}{}%
  {\givenname~\name \> (\csviffirstrow{first entry!!}{following entry})}
\end{dispExample}
\end{docCommand}


\begin{docCommand}{csvifoddrow}{\marg{then macros}\marg{else macros}}
  Inside the command list of \refCom{csvreader}, the \meta{then macros}
  are executed for odd-numbered   data lines, and the \meta{else macros}
  are executed for even-numbered lines.
\begin{dispExample}
\csvreader[head to column names,tabular=|l|l|l|l|,
  table head=\hline\bfseries \# & \bfseries Name & \bfseries Grade\\\hline,
  late after line=\\, late after last line=\\\hline]{grade.csv}{}{%
    \csvifoddrow{\slshape\thecsvrow & \slshape\name, \givenname & \slshape\grade}%
    {\bfseries\thecsvrow & \bfseries\name, \givenname & \bfseries\grade}}
\end{dispExample}

The |\csvifoddrow| macro may be used for striped tables:

\begin{dispExample}
% This example needs the xcolor package
\csvreader[head to column names,tabular=rlcc,
  table head=\hline\rowcolor{red!50!black}\color{white}\# & \color{white}Person
    & \color{white}Matr.~No. & \color{white}Grade,
  late after head=\\\hline\rowcolor{yellow!50},
  late after line=\csvifoddrow{\\\rowcolor{yellow!50}}{\\\rowcolor{red!25}}]%
  {grade.csv}{}%
  {\thecsvrow & \givenname~\name & \matriculation & \grade}%
\end{dispExample}

Alternatively, |\rowcolors| from the |xcolor| package can be used for this
purpose:

\begin{dispExample}
% This example needs the xcolor package
\csvreader[tabular=rlcc, before table=\rowcolors{2}{red!25}{yellow!50},
  table head=\hline\rowcolor{red!50!black}\color{white}\# & \color{white}Person
    & \color{white}Matr.~No. & \color{white}Grade\\\hline,
  late after line=\\,head to column names]{grade.csv}{}%
  {\thecsvrow & \givenname~\name & \matriculation & \grade}%
\end{dispExample}
\end{docCommand}

\clearpage

\begin{docCommand}{csvfilteraccept}{}
  All following consistent data lines will be accepted and processed.
  This command overwrites all previous filter settings and may be used
  inside \refKey{/csv/before filter} to implement
  an own filtering rule together with |\csvfilterreject|.
\begin{dispExample}
\csvreader[autotabular,
  before filter=\ifthenelse{\equal{\csvcoliv}{m}}{\csvfilteraccept}{\csvfilterreject}
  ]{grade.csv}{}{\csvlinetotablerow}%
\end{dispExample}
\end{docCommand}


\begin{docCommand}{csvfilterreject}{}
  All following data lines will be ignored.
  This command overwrites all previous filter settings.
\end{docCommand}


\begin{docCommand}{csvline}{}
  This macro contains the current and unprocessed data line.
\begin{dispExample}
\csvreader[no head, tabbing, table head=\textit{line XX:}\=\kill]%
  {grade.csv}{}{\textit{line \thecsvrow:} \> \csvline}%
\end{dispExample}
\end{docCommand}


\begin{docCommand}{thecsvrow}{}
  Typesets the current data line number. This is the
  current number of accepted data lines without the header line.
  The \LaTeX\ counter |csvrow| can be addressed directly in the usual way,
  e.\,g. by |\roman{csvrow}|.
\end{docCommand}


\begin{docCommand}{thecsvinputline}{}
  Typesets the current file line number. This is the
  current number of all data lines including the header line.
  The \LaTeX\ counter |csvinputline| can be addressed directly in the usual way,
  e.\,g. by |\roman{csvinputline}|.
\begin{dispExample}
\csvreader[no head, filter equal={\thecsvinputline}{3}]%
  {grade.csv}{}%
  {The line with number \thecsvinputline\ contains: \csvline}%
\end{dispExample}
\end{docCommand}


\begin{docCommand}{csvlinetotablerow}{}
  Typesets the current processed data line with |&| between the entries.
  Most users will never apply this command.
\end{docCommand}



\clearpage
\section{Option Keys}\label{sec:schluessel}%
For the \meta{options} in \refCom{csvreader} respectively \refCom{csvloop}

\end{docCsvKey}


\clearpage
\subsection{Consistency Check and Filtering}%

\end{docCsvKey}

\begin{docCsvKey}{default}{}{style}
  A style definition which is used for every following CSV file which
  resets all settings to default values\footnote{\texttt{default} is used
  because of the global nature of most settings.}.
  This key should not be used or changed by the user if there is not a
  really good reason (and you know what you do).
\end{docCsvKey}


\begin{docCsvKey}{separator}{=\meta{sign}}{no default, initially |comma|}
  \catcode `|=12
  Sets the \meta{sign} which is treates as separator between the data values
  of a data line. Feasible values are:
  \begin{itemize}
  \item\texttt{comma}: This is the initial value with '\texttt{,}' as separator.
  \item\texttt{semicolon}: Sets the separator to '\texttt{;}'.

  Typically, the \meta{macro} may call an external program which preprocesses
  the original CSV file (e.\,g. sorting the file) and creates the
  preprocessed CSV file. The later file is used by \refCom{csvreader}
  or \refCom{csvloop}.

\section{Examples}%

\subsection{A Serial Letter}%
In this example, a serial letter is to be written to all persons with
addresses from the following CSV file. Deliberately, the file content is
not given in very pretty format.

%-- file embedded for simplicity --
\begin{tcbverbatimwrite}{address.csv}
name,givenname,gender,degree,street,zip,location,bonus
Maier,Hans,m,,Am Bachweg 17,10010,Hopfingen,20
    % next line with a comma in curly braces
Huber,Erna,f,Dr.,{Moosstra\ss{}e 32, Hinterschlag},10020,\"{O}rtingstetten,30
Wei\ss{}b\"{a}ck,Werner,m,Prof. Dr.,Brauallee 10,10030,Klingenbach,40
    % this line is ignored %
  Siebener ,  Franz,m,   ,  Blaumeisenweg 12  , 10040 ,  Pardauz , 50
    % preceding and trailing spaces in entries are removed %
Schmitt,Anton,m,,{\AE{}lfred-Esplanade, T\ae{}g 37}, 10050,\OE{}resung,60
\end{tcbverbatimwrite}
%-- end embedded file --

\csvlisting{address}

Firstly, we survey the file content quickly using
|\csvautotabular|.
As can be seen, unfeasible lines are ignored automatically.

\begin{dispExample}
\tiny\csvautotabular{address.csv}
\end{dispExample}

Now, we create the serial letter where every feasible data line produces
an own page. Here, we simulate the page by a |tcolorbox| (from the package
|tcolorbox|).
For the gender specific salutations, an auxiliary macro |\ifmale| is
introduced.

\begin{dispExample}
% this example requires the tcolorbox package
\newcommand{\ifmale}[2]{\ifthenelse{\equal{\gender}{m}}{#1}{#2}}

\csvreader[head to column names]{address.csv}{}{%
\begin{tcolorbox}[colframe=DarkGray,colback=White,arc=0mm,width=(\linewidth-2pt)/2,
      equal height group=letter,before=,after=\hfill,fonttitle=\bfseries,
      adjusted title={Letter to \name}]
  \ifthenelse{\equal{\degree}{}}{\ifmale{Mr.}{Ms.}}{\degree}~\givenname~\name\\
  \street\\\zip~\location
  \tcblower
  {\itshape Dear \ifmale{Sir}{Madam},}\\
  we are pleased to announce you a bonus value of \bonus\%{}
  which will be delivered to \location\ soon.\\\ldots
\end{tcolorbox}}
\end{dispExample}

\subsection{A Graphical Presentation}%
For this example, we use some artificial statistical data given by a CSV file.

%-- file embedded for simplicity --
\begin{tcbverbatimwrite}{data.csv}
land,group,amount
Bayern,A,1700
Baden-W\"{u}rttemberg,A,2300
Sachsen,B,1520
Th\"{u}ringen,A,1900
Hessen,B,2100
\end{tcbverbatimwrite}
%-- end embedded file --

\csvlisting{data}

Firstly, we survey the file content using
|\csvautotabular|.

\begin{dispExample}
\csvautotabular{data.csv}
\end{dispExample}

The amount values are presented in the following diagram by bars where
the group classification is given using different colors.

\begin{dispExample}
% This example requires the package tikz
\begin{tikzpicture}[Group/A/.style={left color=red!10,right color=red!20},
                    Group/B/.style={left color=blue!10,right color=blue!20}]
\csvreader[head to column names]{data.csv}{}{%
  \begin{scope}[yshift=-\thecsvrow cm]
  \path [draw,Group/\group] (0,-0.45)
    rectangle node[font=\bfseries] {\amount} (\amount/1000,0.45);
  \node[left] at (0,0) {\land};
  \end{scope}  }
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{dispExample}

\clearpage
Next, we create a pie chart by calling |\csvreader| twice.
In the first step, the total sum of amounts is computed, and in the second
step the slices are drawn.

\begin{dispExample}
% Modified example from www.texample.net for pie charts
% This example needs the packages tikz, xcolor, calc
\definecolorseries{myseries}{rgb}{step}[rgb]{.95,.85,.55}{.17,.47,.37}
\resetcolorseries{myseries}%

% a pie slice
\newcommand{\slice}[4]{
  \pgfmathsetmacro{\midangle}{0.5*#1+0.5*#2}
  \begin{scope}
    \clip (0,0) -- (#1:1) arc (#1:#2:1) -- cycle;
    \colorlet{SliceColor}{myseries!!+}%
    \fill[inner color=SliceColor!30,outer color=SliceColor!60] (0,0) circle (1cm);
  \end{scope}
  \draw[thick] (0,0) -- (#1:1) arc (#1:#2:1) -- cycle;
  \node[label=\midangle:#4] at (\midangle:1) {};
  \pgfmathsetmacro{\temp}{min((#2-#1-10)/110*(-0.3),0)}
  \pgfmathsetmacro{\innerpos}{max(\temp,-0.5) + 0.8}
  \node at (\midangle:\innerpos) {#3};
}

% sum of amounts
\csvreader[before reading=\def\mysum{0}]{data.csv}{amount=\amount}{%
  \pgfmathsetmacro{\mysum}{\mysum+\amount}%
}

% drawing of the pie chart
\begin{tikzpicture}[scale=3]%
\def\mya{0}\def\myb{0}
\csvreader[head to column names]{data.csv}{}{%
  \let\mya\myb
  \pgfmathsetmacro{\myb}{\myb+\amount}
  \slice{\mya/\mysum*360}{\myb/\mysum*360}{\amount}{\land}
}
\end{tikzpicture}%
\end{dispExample}


\clearpage
Finally, the filter option is demonstrated by separating the groups A and B.
Every item is piled upon the appropriate stack.

\begin{dispExample}
\newcommand{\drawGroup}[2]{%
  \def\mya{0}\def\myb{0}
  \node[below=3mm] at (2.5,0) {\bfseries Group #1};
  \csvreader[head to column names,filter equal={\group}{#1}]{data.csv}{}{%
    \let\mya\myb
    \pgfmathsetmacro{\myb}{\myb+\amount}
    \path[draw,top color=#2!25,bottom color=#2!50]
      (0,\mya/1000) rectangle node{\land\ (\amount)} (5,\myb/1000);
}}

\begin{tikzpicture}
  \fill[gray!75] (-1,0) rectangle (13,-0.1);
  \drawGroup{A}{red}
  \begin{scope}[xshift=7cm]
  \drawGroup{B}{blue}
  \end{scope}
\end{tikzpicture}

\end{dispExample}


\clearpage
\subsection{Macro code inside the data}%

If needed, the data file may contain macro code. Note that the first character
of a data line is not allowed to be the backslash '|\|'.

%-- file embedded for simplicity --
\begin{tcbverbatimwrite}{macrodata.csv}
type,description,content
M,A nice \textbf{formula},         $\displaystyle \int\frac{1}{x} = \ln|x|+c$
G,A \textcolor{red}{colored} ball, {\tikz \shadedraw [shading=ball] (0,0) circle (.5cm);}
M,\textbf{Another} formula,        $\displaystyle \lim\limits_{n\to\infty} \frac{1}{n}=0$
\end{tcbverbatimwrite}
%-- end embedded file --

\csvlisting{macrodata}

Firstly, we survey the file content using
|\csvautotabular|.

\begin{dispExample}
\csvautotabular{macrodata.csv}
\end{dispExample}


\begin{dispExample}
\csvstyle{my enumerate}{head to column names,
  before reading=\begin{enumerate},after reading=\end{enumerate}}

\csvreader[my enumerate]{macrodata.csv}{}{%
  \item \description:\par\content}

\bigskip
Now, formulas only:
\csvreader[my enumerate,filter equal={\type}{M}]{macrodata.csv}{}{%
  \item \description:\qquad\content}
\end{dispExample}
