I tried importing a medical data and I ran into this unicode error, here is my code:

output_path = r"C:/Users/muham/Desktop/AI projects/cancer doc classification"
my_file = glob.glob(os.path.join(output_path, '*.csv'))

for files in my_file:
data = pd.read_csv(files)
   print(data)

My error:

UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0x93 in position 3314: invalid start byte
unicode pandas numpy python

Try other encodings, default one is utf-8

like

import pandas

pandas.read_csv(path, encoding="cp1252")

or ascii, latin1, etc ...
