### Usage

#### Generate and save a new CSV file using method chaining:

```C#
CsvFile csv1 = new CsvFile()
.AddColumn("Id")
.AddColumn("Name")
.AddColumn("Description")
.AddRow()
.AddCell("1234")
.AddCell("Hej med\ndig")
.AddCell("hello \"world\"")
.AddRow()
.AddCell("5678")
.AddCell("rød grød med fløde")
.AddCell("hello")
.File
.Save("C:/Example.csv", CsvSeparator.Tab, Encoding.UTF8);
```

#### Load a CSV file from disk:

```C#
// Load the file from disk (assuming tabular as separator and UTF-8 as encoding)
CsvFile csv2 = CsvFile.Load("C:/Example.csv", CsvSeparator.Tab, Encoding.UTF8);

// Iterate through the columns
foreach (CsvColumn column in csv2.Columns)
{
Console.WriteLine(column.Index + ". " + column.Name);
}

// Iterate through the rows
foreach (CsvRow row in csv2.Rows)
{

Console.WriteLine("Row #" + (row.Index + 1));

// Iterate throug the cells of the row
foreach (CsvCell cell in row.Cells)
{
Console.WriteLine(cell.Column.Name + " => " + cell.Value);
}

}
```
