XLS

Microsoft Excel Binary File Format

The XLS file format is a binary file format used by Microsoft Excel to store spreadsheet data, including text, numbers, formulas, and formatting. It is supported by various spreadsheet applications like Microsoft Excel, LibreOffice Calc, and Apache OpenOffice, as well as online tools like Google Sheets. The format organizes data into worksheets with rows and columns, supports advanced features like macros, charts, and conditional formatting, and is part of the broader Excel ecosystem, though it has been largely replaced by the XML-based XLSX format.
