- Description
- Lotus Worksheet (wk1) is a file type used by the Lotus 1-2-3 spreadsheet application. It is a binary file format used to store worksheets, which can contain numerical and textual data, as well as formulas, charts, and images. It is now considered an obsolete file type and is replaced by the newer xlsx format.
- An XLSX file is an Excel spreadsheet created by Microsoft Excel or another spreadsheet program, such as OpenOffice Calc or Apple Numbers. It stores data in worksheets, which contain cells arranged in a grid of rows and columns, and may also contain charts, mathematical functions, styles, and formatting. XLSX files are commonly used to store financial data and to create simple or complex mathematical models.
