SplFileObject::fgetcsv — Gets line from file and parse as CSV fields

### Descrierea

public SplFileObject::fgetcsv ([ string `$delimiter` = "," [, string `$enclosure` = "\"" [, string `$escape` = "\\" ]]] ) : array

Gets a line from the file which is in CSV format and returns an array containing the fields read.

> Notă:

> The locale settings are taken into account by this function. If LC_CTYPE is e.g. en_US.UTF-8, files in one-byte encodings may be read wrongly by this function.

### Parametri

`delimiter`

  The field delimiter (one character only). Defaults as a comma or the value set using SplFileObject::setCsvControl().

`enclosure`

  The field enclosure character (one character only). Defaults as a double quotation mark or the value set using SplFileObject::setCsvControl().

`escape`

  The escape character (at most one character). Defaults as a backslash (\) or the value set using SplFileObject::setCsvControl(). An empty string ("") disables the proprietary escape mechanism.

  > Notă: Usually an `enclosure` character is escpaped inside a field by doubling it; however, the `escape` character can be used as an alternative. So for the default parameter values "" and \" have the same meaning. Other than allowing to escape the `enclosure` character the `escape` character has no special meaning; it isn't even meant to escape itself.

### Valorile întoarse

Returns an indexed array containing the fields read, or `FALSE` on error.

> Notă:

> A blank line in a CSV file will be returned as an array comprising a single `NULL` field unless using `SplFileObject::SKIP_EMPTY | SplFileObject::DROP_NEW_LINE`, in which case empty lines are skipped.

### Istoricul schimbărilor
