The CSV module will read a row at a time, but nothing gets printed till 
you print it.  So starting with Dan's code,

row[0] is column one of a given row, while row[1] is the next column, 
and so on.

import csv

def main():
     with open('test.csv', 'r') as file_:
         for row in csv.reader(file_, delimiter="|"):
             if row[0] == "special":
                 print row[1:]     #print columns starting at the second
