I have downloaded India survey data and working on analyzing it. Can anyone recommend me resources about how to deal with .dat files? I tried to see the content using python and found the content in the format as attached with this. Please anyone can help me with using .dat files? Is it a good idea to covert it and see it in xlsx/csv? Please let me know how do you deal with it?

Thanks,
