Comma-separated values (CSV) is a plain text data format for storing tabular data where the fields (values) of a record are separated by a comma and each record is a line (i.e. newline separated). CSV is commonly-used in software that generally deals with tabular data such as a database or a spreadsheet.¹ Benefits cited for using CSV include simplicity of use and human readability.² CSV is a form of delimiter-separated values.
