CSV
CSV (Comma Separated Values) files are the most common format for storing tabular data. Values in a row are separated by commas and rows are separated by newlines.
CSQ files often start with a header row that has column names, but this is not required.
Each row in a CSV file must have the same number of values as the header row.
CSV files do no enforce types or a schema. This means that each column can have multiple types, which can make analysis difficult and compression inefficient.
Parquet files can be easier to analyze and compress better than CSV files.
TSV
TSV (Tab Separated Values) files are the same as CSV files, except values in a row are separated by a tab.
Values within a row are separated by tabs. Rows are separated by newlines.
TSV files often start with a header row that has column names, but this is not required.
Each row in a TSV file mush have the same number of values as the header row.
TSV files do not enforce types or a schema. This means that each column can have multiple types, which can make analysis difficult and compression inefficient.
Parquet files can be easier to analyze and compress better than TSV files.
