Yes, XML can be used for data storage. XML store data in the form of nodes and sub-nodes.
XML is not a programming or computer language, it is a markup language that is used to transfer data over the internet across different systems.
Serialization in computer science refers to the process of converting data structures or objects into a format that can be easily stored or transmitted. The key concepts in serialization include encoding data into a specific format, such as JSON or XML, and then decoding it back into its original form. Serialization impacts data storage by allowing complex data structures to be saved in a more efficient manner, and it impacts data transfer by enabling the transmission of data across different systems or platforms.
An easy way would be to open the TXT file using Notepad or a comparable program, hit Ctrl+a to select all, Ctrl+c to copy, open up Microsoft Word 2007, hit Ctrl+v to paste, and save that as a XML doc. An even easier way would be just to change the .txt extension to .xml, this should work as long as your etxt file has the correct xml syntaxt to denote an xml file eg <xml> - denotes start of xml file </xml> denotes end of xml file
The definition of computer storage is a data storage that is often called storage of memory refer to computer components and recordings media that retains digital data used.
I guess you have to learn some basics. Software Engineering is a Engineering discipline and XML is a technology. There is no such relation of those two. XML is using widely in computer programming. E.g. for config. an application, store data.
XML is far better for data storage, JSON seems to be used more often for web services, api and the like.
XML is used for the strategic storage of data that can be read and manipulated later by a computer or a user. XML also serves as a base or standard for other languages, such as XHTML. XML is a markup language intended for storing, transmitting and displaying data. Its not a programming language so doesnt do anything on its own.
In XML data storage, the data is stored in a file which represents an XML Schema of the data. To read the data, you have to pull and open the entire file in memory and use technics like xpath to get the data element you want. In SQL data storage, the data is stored in a database ( usually relational database). To read the data, you simple sent an SQL query to the database. The database management engine analysis the query and get the required data elements you ask for in your query which is finally sent to you as a reply.
xml is used on webpages and web services and can also be used to create data bases and to store and carry data.
XML is a language used to store data. XSLT is a language which is used to transform XML into other XML.
xml is not a database, its a markup language that is used to transport data, information or bits of data are kept within xml tags and carried over the internet.
xml is a meta language which means it is a language to describe data, their is no language per se that is used in xml, xml is simply plain text.
xml can be used with other technologies to access a database but xml is not a programming language on its own so cant access a database.
XML is not easy on the eyes. Charts and tables are.owers XML is a way to tell the browsers how to diplay the data, but it is not visible as it it sits in the source code of the webpage or domain.
xml is a markup language that is used ti dispplay data and web pages as intended. XML has no semantic menating and you create your own tags in accordance with xml specifications.
XML uses XSL to describe data
XML provides a way for structured documentation. It is a software and hardware independent tool for carrying information. It is self-descriptive and has been designed for transportation and storage of data. It also facilitates dynamic data content for a web page.
