The difference
between Data and Information
Data :
Data refers to the lowest
abstract or a raw input which when processed or arranged makes meaningful
output. It is the group or chunks which represent quantitative and qualitative
attributes pertaining to variables. Information is usually the processed outcome
of data. More specifically speaking, it is derived from data. Information is a
concept and can be used in many domains.
Information :
Information
can be a mental stimulus, perception, representation,knowledge, or even an
instruction. The examples of data can be facts, analysis, or statistics. In
computer terms, symbols, characters, images, or numbers are data. These are the
inputs for the system to give a meaningful interpretation. In other words, data
in a meaningful form is information.
