===XQuery===
With the {{Code|xquery}} format, CSV records can be are converted to a plain sequence of arrays:
* The resulting value will be a map with a {{Code|records}} and an optional {{Code|names}} key.
* The column names will be available if {{Code|header}} option is set to {{Code|true}}.
The resulting data CSV map can e.g. be accessed as follows:
* <code>$csv?records[5]</code> returns all entries of the 5th record (row)
