Convert CSV to UOS

Understanding csv and uos file formats

CSV (Comma-Separated Values) is a widely used plain text format for storing tabular data, where each line represents a row and columns are separated by commas. It is compatible with most spreadsheet and database applications.

UOS (Uniform Office Spreadsheet) is a file format used by the Uniform Office Format (UOF) suite, primarily in Chinese office software like WPS Office. UOS files are XML-based and designed for spreadsheet data, similar to Microsoft Excel's XLSX format but tailored for UOF compatibility.
