You might choose to use a structured file format like CSV (Comma-Separated Values) over a sequential file when you need to store tabular data with multiple fields or attributes. CSV files allow you to organize data into rows and columns, making it easier to represent and manipulate structured information. They are commonly used for data exchange between applications, database imports/exports, and spreadsheet compatibility. Sequential files, on the other hand, are better suited for storing raw data without complex structures or relationships between fields.
