What ZIP and TAR files are

ZIP

ZIP is the most widely used archive format for compressing and bundling multiple files into a single container. It supports lossless compression and is natively supported by all major operating systems.

TAR

TAR (Tape Archive) is a Unix-based archive format that bundles multiple files into a single file without compression. It is commonly combined with gzip or bzip2 for compressed archives.
