What is CSV?

The least glamorous and most durable data format there is: rows of values separated by commas, readable by every spreadsheet and database ever written. All its subtlety is in quoting - a value with a comma in it has to be wrapped in quotes, and a quote inside that has to be doubled.

What is HTML?

The web's document format, and incidentally a place an enormous amount of tabular data ends up - published tables that were never offered as a download. Pulling those out is usually easier than asking whoever published them for the numbers.
