A TXT record, as the abbreviation implies, is a record, which contains data in human-readable form and not code. It can be set up for a domain or a subdomain for a variety of purposes. Search engines like Google, for example, have different ways of verifying you're the owner of a certain domain and one of them is by creating a TXT record with specific text which they provide and which you need to use as the record value. The exact same verification method is being employed by some analytics platforms that check the traffic to your web sites as well. Needless to say, in this case the content of the record is going to be read by a robot, but it will still be in human-readable form. A TXT record is also employed when you activated the so-called SPF protection for your email addresses so that you can protect them from being forged. In this situation, the record contains info showing that a certain electronic message is sent from a trusted and authorized mail server. You may use a TXT record for any other information also, just like your company details, for instance.
