I have a spreadsheet that has many rows and columns of data. Also, 20 fields need to be evaluated with around 15 variables. If I were to create a program that filters this data and finds the lowest cost option, how would I go about doing that?

I have heard of comma separated values (CSV), where excel spreadsheets can be saved as one super long string that is separated by commas. Are there any programs that aid in CSV? Is CSV the way to solve this programming problem?

Sounds good, if you can program this should be a piece of cake. You don't need no helper functions.
