What is data processing?
Data processing is a process that converts data into information or knowledge as like data into meaningful information. The processing is automated and running on a computer. Because data are most useful when well-presented and actually informative, data-processing systems are often referred to as information systems to emphasize on practical assumption. Nevertheless, both terms are roughly synonymous, performing similar conversions; data-processing systems typically manipulate raw data into meaningful information, and likewise information systems typically take raw data as input to produce information as output.
For marketing of data processing into the better market or their profession, a computer programmer or a systems analyst that might once have referred to computer. They produce as data-processing systems more often than not nowadays refers to the computer systems that they produce by some other term that includes the word information, such as information systems, information technology systems, or management information systems(MIS).
Meanwhile data processing, data are defined as numbers or characters that represents measurement from observable phenomena and data interpretation. The smallest data is single datum is a single measurement from observable phenomena. Measured information is then algorithmically derived and/or logically deduced and/or statistically calculated from multiple data as the prescribed/ordered list. Information is defined as either a meaningful answer to a query or a meaningful stimulus that can cascade into further queries or the respond from a query.
From this perspective, data processing becomes the process of converting information into data and also the converting of data back into information (vice versa). The distinction is that conversion doesn’t require a question (query) to be answered. For example, information in the form of a string of characters forming a sentence in English is converted or encoded from a keyboard’s key-presses as represented by hardware-oriented integer codes into ASCII integer codes after which it may be more easily processed by a computer–not as merely raw, amorphous integer data and its values, but as a meaningful information in a natural language’s set of graphemes–and finally decoded to be displayed as characters, represented by a font on the computer output. In that example we can see the stage-by-stage conversion of the presence and then absence of electrical conductivity (conductor type) in the key-press and subsequent release at the keyboard from raw substantially-meaningless integer hardware-oriented data to evermore-meaningful information as the processing proceeds toward the human being. This is the way how you get the meaningful information. Thanks
