And here is an excerpt:

===========================

What is CSV?

Comma separated values (CSV) is a file format that is used to exchange data between programs. It uses commas to separate values and requires equally many values on each line.

Example

For a game we want to save the best player’s score, its name and the date on which the score was achieved.
The format we choose therefore is: [player’s name], [score], [date]

This means that bob scored 12 points at 2013-01-02. We can easily store multiple scores by writing them one below another.

Observation:  CSV files can hold one to many records or lines with values.
