Explanation:
The error “TypeError: read_csv() got an unexpected keyword argument ‘error_bad_lines'” occurs when the ‘error_bad_lines’ parameter is passed to the ‘read_csv()’ function in pandas, but this parameter is not a valid argument.
The correct parameter to handle bad lines in pandas’ ‘read_csv()’ function is ‘error_bad_lines’, not ‘error_bad_lines’.
Here is an example of how this error can occur:
import pandas as pd
# Creating a DataFrame from a CSV file with error_bad_lines parameter
df = pd.read_csv('data.csv', error_bad_lines=False)
In the above example, the ‘error_bad_lines’ parameter is passed to the ‘read_csv()’ function with a value of ‘False’. However, ‘error_bad_lines’ is not a valid argument, hence the TypeError is thrown.
To resolve this error, you should replace the ‘error_bad_lines’ parameter with ‘error_bad_lines=False’ or remove it completely if it is not required.
# Fixing the error by removing the error_bad_lines parameter
df = pd.read_csv('data.csv')
# or
# Fixing the error by setting error_bad_lines=False
df = pd.read_csv('data.csv', error_bad_lines=False)
