What is CSV?

CSV (Comma-Separated Values) is a simple text file format used to store tabular data. Each line represents a data record, and each field within a record is separated by a delimiter (usually a comma). CSV files are widely used for data exchange between different applications and systems.

Key Features

  • Customizable delimiter (comma, semicolon, tab, pipe)
  • Support for quoted fields with special characters
  • Interactive table view with sorting capabilities
  • Export to CSV or JSON format
  • Real-time statistics (rows, columns, cells)

Common Use Cases

  • Data migration between different database systems
  • Importing/exporting data from spreadsheet applications
  • Processing large datasets for analysis
  • Converting CSV to JSON for web applications

Best Practices

  • Always include a header row to make data more readable
  • Use quotes around fields containing special characters
  • Be consistent with delimiter choice throughout the file
  • Validate CSV data before importing to production systems
