Personal Expense Tracker

This is a command-line based Python program for recording and reviewing daily personal expenses.

Features

• Add an expense with date, category, amount, and a note.
• View all recorded expenses.
• View total spending and spending summary by category.
• Automatically saves and loads data from a file.

How It Works

1. When the program starts, it loads previously saved expenses from a CSV file.
2. The user is shown a menu with options to:
   • Add a new expense
   • View all recorded expenses
   • View a total and category-wise summary
   • Exit the program
3. When adding an expense, the user is prompted to enter the date, category, amount, and an optional note.
4. All expenses are saved in a file named expenses.csv so they remain available the next time the program is run.

• expenses.csv – The file where all expenses are saved. This file is created automatically if it does not exist.

Requirements
