What is the supported file type extension to send analytical result set through email attachment?

The supported file type extension for sending analytical result sets through email as an attachment is .csv. This format is widely used for data analysis and represents data in a structured manner, where each piece of data is separated by a comma. This makes it easy for various software applications, including spreadsheet programs, database systems, and data analysis tools to read, interpret, and manipulate the data efficiently.

The .csv format is particularly beneficial when sharing large datasets because it is relatively lightweight compared to other file types, ensuring quick transfers over email. Its simplicity and compatibility with a variety of data handling applications add to its utility in analytical contexts.

While other formats such as .xls (Excel spreadsheet), .pdf (portable document format), and .txt (text file) can also be used for data, they do not offer the same advantages as .csv in terms of structured data interchange, ease of analysis, and compatibility with data processing tools commonly used in analytics.
