Answer 1

There are several ways to do it, here are some of them:

1. according to @Teddy van Jerry using pgfplotstable

Your .txt file:

    x y
    1 2
    2 4
    3 6
    4 8

Your .tex file

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{pgfplotstable}
\begin{document}
\pgfplotstabletypeset[
    col sep=space,
    columns={x,y},
    columns/x/.style={column name=$x$, column type={|c}},
    columns/y/.style={column name=$y$, column type={c|}},
    every head row/.style={before row=\hline, after row=\hline},
    every last row/.style={after row=\hline},
]{data.txt}
\end{document}

Result

2. Using \usepackage{csvsimple}

Your .txt file:

Name, Age, Gender
John, 30, Male
Sarah, 25, Female
Bob, 45, Male

Your .tex file

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{csvsimple}
\begin{document}
\begin{table}[h]
\centering
\csvreader[    tabular=|c|c|c|,    table head=\hline Name & Age & Gender \\hline,    late after line=\\hline,    ]{data.txt}{Name=\name,Age=\age,Gender=\gender}{\name & \age & \gender}
\end{table}
\end{document}
