Attempt to distinguish between manual and electronic data processing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>DEFINITION OF DATA<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The term data means any basic fact which may be input to some processing system. A processing system is one where computations, comparisons and general manipulation of data are done. The processing may be people or machine e.g the computer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Information on the other hand, is the end \u2013 result of a processing system. The information is needed by management for decision making. The relationship between data and information is shown in the diagram below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\" width=\"68\" height=\"12\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\" width=\"51\" height=\"12\">INPUT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; PROCESSING&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; OUTPUT<strong><br><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>WHAT IS DATA PROCESSING?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Data processing is the task of using a collection of basic facts to produce information, usually it has no value in itself until it is subjected to analysis, validations and comparisons with other data produce result (information), for example a collection of weights of individuals do not turn useful information for decision making.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However when the set&nbsp; of data is processed such as searching for individual with a maximum or minimum weight or the weight of all concerned in the study, information is produced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Management can decide on the basis of each information to assign special duties to the fellow with the maximum or minimum weight. Other use could be made on such information depending upon the situation prevailing on the organization and their special needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, data processing is an operation on computer data which involves the entering, sorting, updating and retrieving of information using computer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>PROPERTIES OF DATA<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol type=\"1\"><li>Collected\/Captured<\/li><li>Prepared<\/li><li>Presented<\/li><li>Precise<\/li><li>Complete<\/li><li>Accurate<\/li><li>Purposeful<\/li><li>Assigned<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>DATA PROCESSING CYCLE<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The data processing cycle describes the stages of data processing. It involves the following stages:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Data gathering<\/li><li>Data collation<\/li><li>Input stage<\/li><li>Processing stage<\/li><li>Storage stage<\/li><li>Output stage<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Element of data processing;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\" width=\"51\" height=\"12\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\" width=\"61\" height=\"12\">INPUT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; PROCESSINGOUTPUT<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Data is often required for various purposes. Even the same item of data may be used in a great variety of ways depending upon the user\u2019s objectives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most data processing work may be viewed as consisting of data, processor and output. Usually, storage also features since both data and program instructions need to be stored.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>EVALUATION<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol type=\"1\"><li>Differentiate between data and information<\/li><li>Define data processing<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>DATA PROCESSING ACTIVITIES<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Data processing activities involve the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol type=\"1\"><li><strong>INPUT<\/strong>: involves three steps; collection, verification\/validation and coding<\/li><li><strong>PROCESSING<\/strong> : involves classification, sorting, calculating, converting and storing<\/li><li><strong>OUTPUT<\/strong>: involve retrieving, converting and communication.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>INPUT ACTIVITY<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol type=\"a\"><li><strong>COLLECTION<\/strong>: involves gathering data from various sources and assembling it at one location.<\/li><li><strong>VERIFICATION\/VALIDATION<\/strong>: after data have been gathered, its accuracy and completeness must be checked. This is an important step that helps to eliminate the possibility of Garbage-In \u2013 Garbage-out(GIGO)<\/li><li><strong>CODE<\/strong>: data must be converted into machine readable form so that it can be entered into the processing system. Entering data via a computer terminal and keyboard is one example of coding.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>PROCESSING ACTIVITY<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>CLASSIFICATION<\/strong>: Classification involves categorizing data according to certain&nbsp;characteristics to make it meaningful to the user. For example, sales data can be grouped according to salesperson, product type, customer or any other classification useful to management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>b)&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>SORT<\/strong>:This involves arranging the grouped data&nbsp;element into predetermined sequence to facilitate processing. For example, an&nbsp;employee number can be last. Sorting can be done on numbers, letters, special characters or a combination of them.After it hasbeen classified, data may be stored.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>c)&nbsp;<strong>CALCULATION<\/strong>: The arithmetical or logical manipulation of data is referred to as calculation. Examples include computation of students\u2019 grade \u2013point averages,&nbsp;customers\u2019 bank balances and employee\u2019s wages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>d)&nbsp;<strong>SUMMARISE<\/strong>:reducing large amount of data to concise, usable form is called summarizing. The logical reduction of data is necessary to provide information that is useful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>e)&nbsp;<strong>STORE<\/strong>: this involves the storing of data not immediately needed;data could be stored on&nbsp;a disk, tape or CD-ROM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>OUTPUT ACTIVITY<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This involves retrieving data, printing data and data communication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>IMPORTANCE OF DATA PROCESSING<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The art of management is increasing as our society becomes more competitive and more technologically advance. The volume of data being generated is correspondingly increasing and becoming unmanageable. On the other hand, the need to make information available, timely and accurately is becoming more vital in the competitive world in which we have found ourselves.

As a result of man\u2019s search for fast and accurate calculating devices, the computer was developed. Essentially, there are three kinds of calculating devices: manual, mechanical and automatic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>ABACUS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first calculating device was probably Abacus. The Chinese invented it. It is still in use in some countries because of its simple operation. It is made up of a frame divided into two parts by a horizontal bar and vertical threads. Each thread contains some beads. It was used to calculate simple addition and subtraction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>NAPIER\u2019S BONE<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The need for a better calculating device was felt as time passed. John Napier, a Scottish mathematician, invented a set of eleven rods, with four sides each which was used as a multiplication tool. These rods were made from bones and this was the reason why they were called Napier Bones. The rods had numbers marked in such a way that, by placing them side by side, products and quotients of large numbers can be obtained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>EVALUATION<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol type=\"1\"><li>Explain types of early counting devices.<\/li><li>How does Abacus and Napier\u2019s function.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><br><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>PASCALINE<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first mechanical calculating machine was invented in 1642, by Blaize Pascal, a French mathematician. Numbers were entered by dialling a series of numbered wheels in this machine. A sequence of wheels transferred the movements to a dial, which showed the result.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Through addition and subtraction were performed the normal way, the device could perform division by repeated subtraction and multiplication by repeated addition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>LEIBNITZ CALCULATING MACHINE<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gottfried Wilhelm Von Leibnitz invented a computer that was built in 1694. It could add and after changing some things around, it could multiply. Leibnitz invented a special stepped gear mechanism for introducing the added digits and this is still being used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>JACQUARD\u2019S LOOM<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jacquard\u2019s loom was one of the first machines that were run by a program. Joseph Jacquard changed the weaving industry by creating a loom that controlled the raising of the thread through punched cards. Jacquard\u2019s loom used lines of holes on a card to represent the weaving pattern.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>PUNCHED CARD<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During the years1920 and 1930, the punched card system developed steadily. A standard card was divided into 80 columns and 12 rows. Only one character could be represented in the 80 columns, thus providing a maximum of 80 characters per card. Punching one, two or three holes in any one column represented a character. Holes were punched into a blank card by a punch machine whose keyboard resembled that of a typewriter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>CONCLUSION<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We have learnt about the various calculating devices and the various ways they perform their operations. We learnt also that Abacus was the first calculating devices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>NUMBER SYSTEM (REVISION)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To effectively use the computer, it is therefore necessary to know how data is represented and communicated to it.

This information may represent an object, image, sound, document or a signal (usually an analog signal) organized into discrete set of its points or samples. This is the binary data that computers and many devices with computing capacity (such as digital camera and digital hearing aids) can process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Digitalization can also be defined as the integration of digital technologies into everyday life. Digital system uses a binary numeric system in which electronic pulses are represented by either 0 for a Low pulse or 1 for a High pulse.
