JSON
JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight, text-based format used for data interchange. JSON is easy to read and write for humans and simple to parse and generate for machines. Its structure is composed of two elements: objects, containing key-value pairs, and arrays, holding lists of values. Keys in JSON objects are strings, and values can be strings, numbers, arrays, true or false, null, and other objects. This format is widely used in web applications for sending data between clients and servers, as well as in configuration files and data feeds.
Fixed Width/Fixed Length
A fixed width (or fixed length) file is a text data file in which each field in a record is allocated a specific number of characters, regardless of the actual content length. This consistent column width ensures that data aligns in columns across rows, making the file appear like a table when viewed in a plain text editor. If a field's content does not fill the entire width, it's padded with spaces or other placeholder characters. Fixed width files are often used in legacy systems, mainframes, and financial data processing systems.
