Comma-separated values

In computing, a **comma-separated values** (**CSV**) file stores information you might find in a spreadsheet, such as a table of text, numbers, and dates, in a plain text file.

## Format

Typically, the first line in a plain text file would contain header information, which are labels for table information organized vertically. Starting with the second line, each line would represent a row. Each cell in a row is separated by a comma, hence its name.

The following is a simple example of this type of file. The example has three columns (labeled 'name', 'age', and 'favorite color'), and four rows (including the header line at the top).

### Escaping

Text in a cell may be surrounded by quotation character (), to note the start and end of a cell (a particular column and row location) in a table. Quotation characters in a cell value in turn can be denoted by doubling the quotation character (). This is primarily used to signify that a particular cell contains data that may be confusing to a computer that's trying to read the file. A common example of this is when a cell contains a comma as part of it's data. Without the quotation marks, it's unclear if the comma denotes a separation between cells:or if it should be part of the cell's data:

## Compatibility

CSV is a way to describe table data. However, various applications may require different types of tables. Having a file in CSV format may not be enough for a file to be compatible with a particular application.

Furthermore, CSV is stored in plain text. An application may have problems reading a CSV file because of incompatibility with the plain text format, either because of the character encoding or line break format.

Angiosperm Phylogeny Group

The **Angiosperm Phylogeny Group** (**APG**) is an informal international group of botanists who came together to get a consensus on the taxonomy of flowering plants (angiosperms). They wanted to base it on plant relationships got from phylogeny. Four versions of a classification system have come from this collaboration. They were published in 1998, 2003, 2009 and 2016. Earlier angiosperm classifications were not based on monophyletic groups (i.e., groups that include all the descendants of a common ancestor).

## Principles of the APG system

The principles of the APG's approach to classification were set out in the first paper of 1998, and have remained unchanged in subsequent revisions. Briefly, these are:

- The Linnean system of orders and families should be kept.
- "The family is central in flowering plant systematics". Classifying families in orders is a "reference tool of broad utility". Orders are  of particular value in teaching, and in studying family relationships.
- Groups should be monophyletic (i.e. consist of _all_ descendants of a common ancestor).
- The main reason why existing systems are rejected is because they do not have this property. They are not proved to be phylogenetic.
- A limited number of larger orders will be more useful than lots of small orders.
- Above or parallel to the level of orders and families, the term clades is used more freely. Some clades have later been given formal names. The authors say that it is "not possible, nor is it desirable" to name all clades in a phylogenetic tree. However, systematists need to agree on names for some clades, particularly orders and families, for communication and discussion.

## Phylogenetic nomenclature

For a detailed discussion on phylogenetic nomenclature, see Cantino _et al_ 2007. The latest version is APG IV.

Hekatonkheires

The **Hekatonkheires** ( - "Hundred-handed ones") are one of the three races of beings born to Ouranos and Gaia, the primordial gods of the sky and the Earth. Their names are **Kottos** (), **Briareos** () and **Gyges** ().

The Hekatonkheires received their name because they each have a hundred arms, fifty on each side of their bodies. Despised by their father, the Hekatonkheires were thrown into Tartarus alongside their brothers, the Elder Cyclopes, guarded by the monster Kampê. Many years later, Zeus, alongside his brothers and sisters, freed the Hekatonkheires and the Elder Cyclopes from their prison so that they might help them in their war against the Titans. During the war, the Hekatonkheires threw rocks at Mount Othrys, the Titans' base, reducing the mountain to half its original size. After the Titanomachy, the Titans were cast into Tartarus, and Zeus appointed the Hekatonkheires to be their jailers.
