Data parsing

Data parsing is the process of transforming raw data into a structured format that is easier to understand and analyze. Think of it like reading a messy, unorganized document and breaking it down into organized sections or categories. For example, when you receive a large amount of information, such as a list of contacts, parsing helps separate names, addresses, and phone numbers so that software can use or display the data more effectively. It’s a fundamental step in processing data to ensure systems can interpret, manipulate, and work with it efficiently.
