What exactly is data? How does it differ from information? And why should I care?
Data is a term that refers to anything that can be recorded or stored electronically. Information is something that can be read, understood, and interpreted.Â
It is usually considered to be facts, figures, numbers, statistics, and other things that can be quantified.
Data is everywhere. From our phones to our cars, from our homes to our workplaces, from our bodies to our brains, data is constantly being created, collected, analyzed, and processed.Â
This is where the real value lies. The key is to make sure that you are using the right tools to get the most out of your data.
