that is where you are going wrong.
you need to understand the concepts of what you are trying to do and an 
understanding of how the language works. this will allow you to write 
your own code.

once you can do this it is then possible to look at other peoples code to 
see how they have achieved their goals an modify it accordingly. to start 
by looking at others code is putting the cart before the hourse

use the CSV module

create 2 CSV reader objects and a CSV writer object
read the data from the 2 readers
manipulate the data to the format you require
wright the new data to the CSV writer
