 Data And Information
 Raw data is a collection of values (maybe numbers and/or text)
that are captured, recorded, stored and classified, but not
organized to convey an specific meaning, or
 Facts or figures in raw form

 (the aim of processing is to make the data into useful
information)
 E.g. A B A C E D A A B C D A B A

 Why I need to study IS ?- 2
The purpose of information system is to process and maintain the data and
information system as one of the results of business process (activities).
If the organization is small and simple, you do not need information system. It
will just cost you. You can use manual paper work instead of investing in
information system.
However, if the system is getting larger in terms of actors and processes, it will
be too complex to process data which relied on manual paper work.
In the presence of system complexities, information system will streamline the
business processes. It supports the processes to be more efficient.
