Modifying csv data

help
1

I found how to read and how to write csv file.

Id there a way, to change data in the file, in the below example, we are reading records, is there a way, for example to change the country of a given field based on the city?

use std::error::Error;
use std::io;
use std::process;

use serde::Deserialize;

#[derive(Debug, Deserialize)]
struct Record {
    city: String,
    region: String,
    country: String,
    population: Option<u64>,
}

fn example() -> Result<(), Box<dyn Error>> {
    let file_path = Path::new("contacts.csv");

    let mut rdr = csv::ReaderBuilder::new()
        .has_headers(true)
        .from_path(file_path).unwrap();

    for result in rdr.records() {
         let record: Record = result.unwrap().deserialize(None).unwrap();
      // if record.city is 'x' then set record.country to 'y'
   
    }
    Ok(())
}

fn main() {
    if let Err(err) = example() {
        println!("error running example: {}", err);
        process::exit(1);
    }
}
