Converts a dataset stored in a CSV formatted string to a dataset that can be immediately assignable to a dataset property in your project. Usually this is used in conjunction with system.file.readFileAsString when reading in a CSV file that was exported using system.dataset.toCSV . The CSV string must be formatted in a specific way:
#NAMES
Col 1,Col 2,Col 3
#TYPES
I,str,D
#ROWS,6
