Introduction to CSV
- CSV (Comma-separated Values) is a file format that uses special characters as a delimiter between values. • Each line of the file is a data record and each record consists of one or more fields, separated by commas.
- A CSV file typically stores tabular data (numbers and text) in plain text, in which case each line will have the same number of fields.
CSV requirements for Purple
- You must use a semicolon (;) as a delimiter. Please do not use any other delimiter
- Only use UTF-8 when saving the CSV files
- Refrain from using additional delimiters like commas, Tab etc.
