What is a .tsv file?

text/tab-separated-values

TSV (Tab-Separated Values) is a plain-text tabular format like CSV but using tab characters as field delimiters. Because tabs rarely appear in data, it often needs less quoting than CSV. It is common in bioinformatics, logs, and command-line data workflows.

How to use a .tsv file

Use an example TSV to test tab-delimited parsing, header and column handling, and pipelines that ingest tabular data from Unix tools or scientific datasets.
