Convert TXT to CSV

.txt

The organization of texts in rows applies to the TXT file format. Such text files oppose binaries, which have data that is interpreted as a text. For example images or sounds that are converted to coded forms. Raw text files can possess texts presented in formatted or in ways that are not formatted. The text files are elementary and are used for storing data in most cases.

Raw text files are not highly formatted, and this means they meet accepted formats by the system terminal and the basic text editor. These files are taken and used universally since any text-based program can read them. This is because it uses a standard form of encoding, making it easy for different language users to utilize the files. The ASCII- specific text files can be used in place of each other and can be read using Unix, Mac, and Windows. UTF-8 differs from ASCII, and this is attributed to Byte order mark differences, but it remains the most character set. Its compatibility with ASCII is backward.

.csv

CSV – is a unique text format. The data inside of which are separated by commas—developed in the early 70-ies of the XX century to import various table information and transfer bulk information between databases in text format. Each line of the file acts as one row of the database. Using the spreadsheet application, CSV files can be organized into cells and added to the appropriate database. Commas separate the parameters of each column. If there are reserved symbols (for example, a semicolon or a new line), double quotes play the separator role. This allows you to transfer information between different programs freely. CSV, in some cases, are сalled flat files. They can be opened by most editors able to work with tables and texts, including both authentic Excel and open source utilities like Apache Open Office and Libre Office.

On personal computers, the CSV extension includes many values represented as ASCII tables. In this case, the text strings are clearly organized, so all values are separated by commas or double quotes (if there are reserved symbols). The use of different delimiters allows the availability of unequal encoding.
