Q. What do you call an electronic device that manipulates information or data?
A computer is an electronic device that manipulates information, or data. It has the ability to store, retrieve, and process data.
Q. Which device processes all the data and instructions?
The computer has memory chips, which are designed to hold data until it is needed. It processes this data into information. The computer has an electronic brain called the Central Processing Unit, which is responsible for processing all data into information according to the instructions given to the computer.
Q. What is data processing and examples?
Data processing is a series of operations that use information to produce a result. Common data processing operations include validation, sorting, classification, calculation, interpretation, organization and transformation of data. The following are illustrative examples of data processing.
Q. What are the two types of data processing?
Types of Data Processing
- Batch Processing.
- Online Processing.
- Real-Time Processing.
Q. What is data processing explain it in your own words?
Data processing, Manipulation of data by a computer. It includes the conversion of raw data to machine-readable form, flow of data through the CPU and memory to output devices, and formatting or transformation of output. Any use of computers to perform defined operations on data can be included under data processing.
Q. What type of data is money?
The money data type is an abstract data type. Money values are stored significant to two decimal places. These values are rounded to their amounts in dollars and cents or other currency units on input and output, and arithmetic operations on the money data type retain two-decimal-place precision.
Q. What type of data are test scores?
In scientific research, a variable is anything that can take on different values across your data set (e.g., height or test scores). There are 4 levels of measurement: Nominal: the data can only be categorized.
Q. What type of variable is male or female?
There are two types of categorical variable, nominal and ordinal. A nominal variable has no intrinsic ordering to its categories. For example, gender is a categorical variable having two categories (male and female) with no intrinsic ordering to the categories. An ordinal variable has a clear ordering.
Q. What type of data is weight in kg?
An example of numeric continuous data is weight – i.e. one does not have to be exactly 65 or 70 kg; one may easily be 67.5567kg.
Q. What type of variable is number of family members?
Numerical values with a true zero point. Interval and Ratio variables can be further split into two types: discrete and continuous. Discrete variables, like counts, can only take on whole numbers: number of children in a family, number of days missed from work.
Q. Is birth year nominal?
A nominal-scale variable is one whose values are categories without any numerical ranking, such as county of residence. An interval-scale variable is measured on a scale of equally spaced units, but without a true zero point, such as date of birth.
