Question

For Data Science, data is typically collected in tabular form and stored in various formats. Which of the following is commonly used for storing such tabular data sets?

Accepted Answer

## Model Answer **(A) SQL databases** SQL databases are commonly used for storing tabular data sets in Data Science, as they organise data in rows and columns for efficient querying and analysis. --- ## Explanation The source passage (Orange Data Mining chapter) mentions that the File widget in Orange loads data from **CSV, Excel, and SQL** formats — confirming SQL databases as a standard storage format for tabular data. NumPy is a Python library (not a storage format), HTML is for web pages, and JSON stores non-tabular/nested data. Examiners expect you to simply identify option **(A)** with a brief justification.
