DefinitionCSV is a text file format in which the values of a table are separated by commas, with one record written per line.
ExplanationFields across a row are separated by commas, and once a record is complete, a line break starts the next one. Because the content is plain text, it does not depend on any particular program and is widely used to pass data between spreadsheet software and databases. Cell colors and formulas, however, are not kept; only the values remain.
AnalogyIt is like a roster written one person per line with a mark between each item, so any program can read it by following the same rule.
Memory hookIt stands for Comma-Separated Values, so the name itself says values separated by commas.
