Hi Keerthi
there are two kinds of computer files: 1) text files; and 2) binary files.
he most common basis for distinguishing text files from binary files depends on the how the underlying stored information is ultimately interpreted and processed by the operating system and associated programs.Text files are usually interpreted as consisting solely of characters from a recognized character set. Well-known character sets include the ASCII character set and the Unicode character set.
Text files are files where most bytes (or short sequences of bytes) represent ordinary readable characters such as letters, digits, and punctuation (including spaces), and include some control characters such as tabs, line feeds and carriage returns. This simplicity allows a wide variety of programs to display their contents.
