Title: Bits & Bytes: Lesson 3 The Data Game
Authors: Microsoft
Keywords: programming concepts

Issue Date: Mar-2007

Abstract: "The amount of information the average person deals with on a daily basis is mind boggling. You are inundated with news and events from television, radio, and the Web. As overwhelming as this is, the amount of personal data generated and collected is miniscule compared with the production of data from companies and research institutions.Luckily computers have come to the rescue for many of the tasks of handling all of this data. They are the perfect device for storing, organizing, and in general, managing the deluge. To better appreciate how computers can process the data that we, as humans, just can't get a handle on, it's useful to understand data from the ground up and in the most elementary form-this is the form that computers can crunch on! Join me as we explore how computers process and store data."
