or an \Array of field converter names and Procs.

See {Field Converters}[#class-CSV-label-Field+Converters]

Default value:
  CSV::DEFAULT_OPTIONS.fetch(:converters) # => nil

The value may be a single field converter name:
  str = '1,2,3'
  # Without a converter
  ary = CSV.parse_line(str)
  ary # => ["1", "2", "3"]
  # With built-in converter :integer
  ary = CSV.parse_line(str, converters: :integer)
  ary # => [1, 2, 3]

The value may be an \Array of field converter names:
  str = '1,3.14159'
  # Without converters
  ary = CSV.parse_line(str)
  ary # => ["1", "3.14159"]
  # With built-in converters
  ary = CSV.parse_line(str, converters: [:integer, :float])
  ary # => [1, 3.14159]

The value may be a \Proc custom converter:
  str = ' foo  ,  bar  ,  baz  '
  # Without a converter
  ary = CSV.parse_line(str)
  ary # => [" foo  ", "  bar  ", "  baz  "]
  # With a custom converter
  ary = CSV.parse_line(str, converters: proc {|field| field.strip })
  ary # => ["foo", "bar", "baz"]
