Answers to Questions (FAQ)
What is a value separation? (Definition)
Value separation is a computer data processing operation that takes care to ensure that the (usually textual) values in a file are read and recognized correctly.
CSV format generally represents values separated by commas or tabs (or any other separator).
How to separate values?
dCode tries to catch all values and their separator automatically and proposes to reorganize them, either under the list form with the chosen delimiter, either under the table form (sortable), that can be exported to a spreadsheet like Excel.
Example: abc def ghi, jklm can be split at spaces/punctuation into abc|def|ghi|jklm with the separator/delimiter | (pipe)
What does CSV stands for?
CSV is the abbreviation of Comma-separated values, where values are delimited with a comma ,.
What does TSV stands for?
TSV is the abbreviation of Tabulation-separated values, where values are delimited with a tabulation character ↹.
How to choose a separator/delimiter?
Be careful to choose a character that will not be used in the fields of the table.
The separator is not standardized, but it is generally a character like a comma ,, a semicolon ;, a slash / etc.
Each line/row of a file is a representation of tabular data.
By default, commas correspond to boundaries between each column.
