Suppose a csv file contains three comma-separated values (strings) on each line (see the left
column of the example table below). Assume, each line of values are, respectively, the
width, height, and depth of a box. Write a program called box.py and add the
following functions to this program.
• read_file() takes a csv filename as a parameter that contains the widths, heights, and
depths of all boxes. This function must read the content of the file, store these values in
a 2-D list as shown in the right column of the example table below, and return this list.
All strings must be converted to integers before they are stored in the list.
Example:
csv data 2-D list
[[15, 6, 3],
[3, 7, 4],
[6, 9, 3],
[15, 6, 11],
[6, 5, 5],
[13, 10, 9],
[9, 10, 3],
[14, 5, 4],
[4, 6, 11],
[12, 10, 9]]
• Add another function called max_volume() to this program that takes this 2-D list as an
input parameter. Each item in that list contains 3 integers representing the dimensions of
a box (i.e., width, height, depth). This function must return the volume of the largest box
in the list. Note that volume = width * height * depth.
• Add a main() function that calls other functions to do the following; (i) it reads a csv
file and stores the width, height, and depth of all boxes in a 2-D list and (ii) finds the
volume of the largest box and prints it to the terminal.
• If you test your program using the sample data given above, the correct answer would be
1170. Test your program with some other sample data to ensure that it works for all inputs.
