In computers, which of the following file formats are exclusively text file formats?

1.PDF

2.CSV

3.GIF

4.RTF

5.TXT

A1, 2 & 5 only

B2, 4 & 5 only ✓ Correct

C2, 3 & 4 only

D1 & 3 only

Correct answer: (B) 2, 4 & 5 only

Explanation

Statements 2, 4 and 5 are correct because CSV, RTF and TXT are all text-based file formats.

Statement 1 is wrong because PDF is a document format that can hold text, images and layout, not plain text only.

Statement 3 is wrong because GIF is an image format, not a text format.

CSV stores data as plain text with values separated by commas.

RTF is rich text that keeps basic formatting while staying text-based, and TXT is unformatted plain text.

Plain text files contain only readable characters with no embedded images or styling data.
