very high-level IO functions?

[York]

Hi,

R language has very high-level IO functions, its read.table can read a 
total .csv file and recogonize the types of each column. write.table can 
do the reverse.

R's MySQL interface has high-level functions, too, e.g. dbWriteTable can 
       automatically build a MySQL table and write a table of R data 
into it.

Is there any python packages do similar things?
