What is a zip file?

Zip File

A zip file is a type of compressed file format that can contain one or more files or folders. It's used for bundling files together into a single archive, making it easier to store, transfer, and share multiple files at once. Zip files are often used for organizing and compressing large amounts of data, such as software programs, documents, images, or multimedia files. They can be created and extracted using various software tools, and they typically have a ".zip" file extension.
