records (foldoc) | record
fixed-width
records
row
An ordered set of fields,
usually stored contiguously. The term is used with similar
meaning in several different contexts. In a file, a "record"
probably has some fixed length, in contrast to a "line" which
may have any length and is terminated by some End Of Line
sequence). A database record is also called a "row". In a
spreadsheet it is always called a "row". Some programming
languages use the term to mean a type composed of fields of
several other types (C calls this a "struct").
In all these cases, a record represents an entity with certain
field values.
Fields may be of a fixed width (bits or characters) or
they may be separated by a delimiter character, often
comma (CSV) or HT (TSV).
In a database the list of values of a given field from all
records is called a column.

blocked records (foldoc) | blocked records
Several records written as a contiguous block on
magnetic tape so that they may be accessed in a single I/O
operation. Blocking increases the amount of data that may be
stored on a tape because there are fewer inter-block gaps.
It requires that the tape drive or processor have a
sufficiently large buffer to store the whole block.
