import csv


ORIG_FILE = 'contacts.csv'
NEW_FILE = 'contacts-clean.csv'

with open(NEW_FILE, 'w', newline='\n') as wfile:
    writer = csv.writer(wfile, delimiter=',', quotechar='"', quoting=csv.QUOTE_MINIMAL)

    with open(ORIG_FILE) as rfile:
        reader = csv.reader(rfile, delimiter=',', quotechar='"')
        for row in reader:
            x = row[PHONE_NUMBER_INDEX]
            if x:
                writer.writerow(row)
                print(x)
