CSV file
Comma-separated values
A CSV file is a plain text file that stores tabular data, with each line representing a row and values separated by commas—hence "comma-separated values." The format is widely used for transferring data between spreadsheet programs, databases, and other applications: Export the contacts as a CSV file.
Despite the name, some CSV files use semicolons or tabs as delimiters.
