Database

You'll have to put into careful consideration what data to include if you write it yourself. Now you say something about your weight. If you write your stuff with only three fields, then decide later you need a fourth, then you'll have to write a "converter" that goes from the "old" file with three fields, to a new file with four. IJS.

This is as opposed to using a spreadsheet or database program where the user could add or delete fields at will. Or it should be that way.

I think in that case otherwise a CSV creator and parser is good for the possibility of adding a field when one has hundreds of records already. Each entry for the new field could be added "by hand", ie. using an ordinary text file although it's clunky.
