2. File Extensions- Check this out: What is a file extension?
"A file extension, also called a filename extension, is the suffix at the end of a filename, which indicates what kind of file it is. For example, you can tell that the file "computer.jpg" is a JPEG image file, based on the ".jpg" file extension. Similarly, you can tell that "readme.txt" is a text document and "document.doc" is a Microsoft Word document. Knowing what extensions common file types use can be helpful." (FileInfo.net)
