YAML files are like spreadsheets, but for computers. Just like a spreadsheet, a YAML file can store data in a table-like format. But unlike a spreadsheet, a YAML file is written in a human-readable format that is easy for computers to understand. This makes YAML files ideal for storing configuration data, such as the settings for a software application.

Eg:

name: Shivam
age: 21
address: !!omap
  city: Delhi
  state: New- Delhi
  country: India
  phone: !!seq
    office: !!int 3462873
    home: 
        - 1111111
        - 2222222
