CSV template output without knowning whats in the CSV

I have a CSV which I load...

import csv
file = upload.filepath
file_read = csv.reader(file)
data = [row for row in file_read]

In my template I want to list each item without having to know the name....

I think what I need is to count how many items are in the row, loop that amount of times getting each item? maybe?

So my output could be 

myemail,mynumber,[email protected],1
myemail2,mynumber2,[email protected],2

Or even

myname,0897654543
myname,0897654w543

either way I never know how many columns are in the csv

Update:

So could I just do this?

{% for item in data %}
   {% for i in item %}
    {{ i }}
   {% endfor %}
{% endfor %}

Could you use numpy.genfromtxt?

import numpy as np
data = np.genfromtxt("yourfile.csv",delimiter=",")

This will make data a numpy array with as many columns as are in your csv file..

I don't understand what you mean by "In my template I want to list each item". But if you just want to print out each row, you can do

for row in file_read :
    print row

or to print each item individually,

for row in file_read :
    for item in row :
        print item
