Create an object which operates like a regular reader but maps the information
read into a dict whose keys are given by the optional *fieldnames* parameter.
If the *fieldnames* parameter is omitted, the values in the first row of the
- *csvfile* will be used as the fieldnames. If the row read has fewer fields than
- the fieldnames sequence, the value of *restval* will be used as the default
- value. If the row read has more fields than the fieldnames sequence, the
- remaining data is added as a sequence keyed by the value of *restkey*. If the
- row read has fewer fields than the fieldnames sequence, the remaining keys take
- the value of the optional *restval* parameter. Any other optional or keyword
- arguments are passed to the underlying :class:`reader` instance.
