I agree with Don - the proposed solution is somewhat limited in scope as it only deals with the provided sample data.
I makes (or rather doesn't consider more generic cases, e.g. embedded double quote and multi-line csv fields).
Removing a sampled (but not stated explicitly) trailing blank(s) is is easy to fix and could be left as an exercise for the OP.
In order consider most (all?) cases of the csv file parcing, one would need a heavier "fork lift" for sure....
