One possible solution could be to loop through the rows of the CSV file and set a flag variable to True when an empty cell is detected in the first column of a specific set of rows. Then, when a new string is detected in the first column, check if the flag variable is True and if it is, rerun the code.
Here's some sample code to illustrate this approach:
import csv
# Set the specific set of rows to monitor
start_row = 2
end_row = 5
# Open the CSV file and loop through the rows
with open('file.csv', 'r') as f:
reader = csv.reader(f)
flag = False
for i, row in enumerate(reader):
if i >= start_row and i <= end_row:
if not row[0]: # empty cell in the first column
flag = True
elif flag: # new string detected after empty cell
# rerun the code here
flag = False # reset the flag
# do other processing for the row
In this example, the code will monitor rows 2 to 5 for empty cells in the first column. If an empty cell is detected, the flag variable will be set to True. When a new string is detected after an empty cell, the code inside the if flag:
block will be executed, and the flag will be reset to False. This allows the code to be rerun for the specific set of rows whenever a new string is detected after an empty cell.
