Creating a csv file with header in UNIX

I have a flat file that contains dynamic list of variables like
a=1
b=2
c=3
.
..
z=26

I need to convert the above into a csv file having the format below:
a,b,c,..,z
1,2,3,..,26

Please note, I do not want a comma separating the last variable.

I tried to refer the post 132268-how-create-csv-file-using-shell-script but it does not say how to create a header. (sorry I can't post it's url since I am limited in my ability to post url's as i don't have 5 posts on the forum)

Requesting your help.

Many Thanks,
