A TXT record, as the abbreviation implies, is a record, which contains info in human-readable form and not code. It could be set up for a domain address or a subdomain for many different purposes. Search engines like Google, for example, have different ways of verifying you're the owner of a certain domain name and one of them is actually by creating a TXT record with unique text which they provide and which you will need to use as the record value. Exactly the same verification method is employed by some analytics platforms that monitor the traffic to your web sites as well. Of course, in such a case the content of the record will be read by a robot, but it'll still be in human-readable form. A TXT record is also used in case you enable the so-called SPF protection for your e-mails so that you can prevent them from being forged. In this situation, the record contains information showing that a certain electronic message is sent from a reliable and authorized mail server. You could use a TXT record for any sort of other information also, such as your business details, for instance.
