File Extension

What is file extension?

A file extension, also called sometimes as a file type or a file format, is nothing but a sequence of several symbols at the end of each file name. On its basis, we obtain the information about the data encoded in the file.
For example, the file file.avi has the file extension .avi. On the basis of the extension, we learn that this is a video (and not a text file or spreadsheet).
