Send CSV file attached to the email - php

Question

I have an issue: i need to create csv file and send it attached to the particular emails.
Honestly i never do that so i'm quite a lammer in this matter. Can anybody tell me with what i have to start or share some links?

I think this what you are looking for, i've used it in the past works perfectly.
Hope it helps.
<?php
$cr = "\n";
$csvdata = "First Name" . ',' . "Last Name" . $cr;
$csvdata .= $txtFName . ',' . $txtLName . $cr;
$thisfile = 'file.csv';
$encoded = chunk_split(base64_encode($csvdata));
// create the email and send it off
$subject = "File you requested from RRWH.com";
$from = "scripts#rrwh.com";
$headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\n";
$headers .= 'Content-Type: multipart/mixed;
boundary="----=_NextPart_001_0011_1234ABCD.4321FDAC"' . "\n";
$message = '
This is a multi-part message in MIME format.
------=_NextPart_001_0011_1234ABCD.4321FDAC
Content-Type: text/plain;
