A CSV (Comma Separated Values) file is a type of plain text file that stores tabular data in a structured format. Each line in the file represents a row of data, and each value within a row is separated by a comma. CSV files are commonly used for exchanging data between different software applications, such as spreadsheets and databases. They are also used for importing and exporting data from web applications and for data analysis. CSV files can be easily opened and edited in any text editor or spreadsheet software, making them a popular choice for data storage and transfer.
Databend is a digital art technique that involves manipulating image files by intentionally corrupting their data. This process involves opening an image file in a text editor and making changes to the code, resulting in distorted and glitchy visuals. The technique has gained popularity in recent years as a way to create unique and abstract digital art pieces. Databending can be done on various file formats, including JPEG, PNG, and GIF, and can be achieved using different software tools. The resulting images often have a surreal and otherworldly quality, making them popular among digital artists and designers.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is ETL?
ETL, an acronym for Extract, Transform, Load, is a vital data integration process. It involves extracting data from diverse sources, transforming it into a usable format, and loading it into a database, data warehouse or data lake. This process enables meaningful data analysis, enhancing business intelligence.
CSV File gives access to various types of data in a structured format that can be easily integrated into various applications and systems.
What is ELT?
ELT, standing for Extract, Load, Transform, is a modern take on the traditional ETL data integration process. In ELT, data is first extracted from various sources, loaded directly into a data warehouse, and then transformed. This approach enhances data processing speed, analytical flexibility and autonomy.
Difference between ETL and ELT?
ETL and ELT are critical data integration strategies with key differences. ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) transforms data before loading, ideal for structured data. In contrast, ELT (Extract, Load, Transform) loads data before transformation, perfect for processing large, diverse data sets in modern data warehouses. ELT is becoming the new standard as it offers a lot more flexibility and autonomy to data analysts.
