Torrent files are normally named with the extension.torrent. A torrent file acts like a table of contents (index) that allows computers to find information through the use of a torrent client. With the help of a torrent file, one can download small parts of the original file from computers that have already downloaded it.
Peers that provide a complete file are called seeders, and the peer providing the initial copy is called the initial seeder. The exact information contained in the torrent file depends on the version of the BitTorrent protocol. By convention, the name of a torrent file has the suffix .torrent.
