CSV is a delimited data format that has fields/columns separated by the comma character and records/rows separated by newlines. Fields that contain a special character (comma, newline, or double quote ), must be enclosed in double quotes. However, if a line contains a single entry which is the empty string, it may be enclosed in double quotes. If a field's value contains a double quote character it is escaped by placing another double quote character next to it. The CSV file format does not require a specific character encoding , byte order , or line terminator format.
- Each record is one line terminated by a line feed (ASCII/LF=0x0A) or a carriage return and line feed pair (ASCII/CRLF=0x0D 0x0A), however, line-breaks can be embedded.
- Fields are separated by commas (although in locales where the comma is used as a decimal point, the semicolon is used instead as a delimiter, inducing some drawbacks when CSV files are exchanged e.g. between France and USA)
- In some CSV implementations, leading and trailing spaces or tabs, adjacent to commas, are trimmed. This practice is contentious and in fact is specifically prohibited by RFC 4180 , which states, "Spaces are considered part of a field and should not be ignored."
- Fields with embedded commas must be enclosed within double-quote characters.
- Fields with embedded double-quote characters must be enclosed within double-quote characters, and each of the embedded double-quote characters must be represented by a pair of double-quote characters.
- Fields with embedded line breaks must be enclosed within double-quote characters.
- Fields with leading or trailing spaces must be enclosed within double-quote characters. (See comment about leading and trailing spaces above.)
- Fields may always be enclosed within double-quote characters, whether necessary or not.
- The first record in a csv file may contain column names in each of the fields.
