Introduction Searching, selecting, and sorting are really "analysing" information processes; they take data and transform it into information. In most cases, the information is displayed immediately after these processes are completed. For example, within databases, records are selected and sorted and then the resulting information is immediately displayed on forms and reports.Note: In the context of databases (and also search engines) these analysis processes determine the data that is retrieved. Therefore, searching,selecting and sorting are also sub-processes that occur within "retrieving" information processes. |
