Software And Data In Society

As we were talking about what exactly data is and what software is, I realized that data and software is apart of our daily lives. Data revolves around our culture because that is information we carry around throughout generations and generations of every family. No matter what culture you're, there is data that makes you who you are. Facebook is also data, unfortunately because all information we learn and share is always going to be there and stored in the back of our minds. Data is also used in schools because they have information about each kid. Information to put them in certain classes and whether or not they are eligible to move on to the next grade. Hospitals have data because that information indicates who people are and what procedures need to be done to them in order to survive. Software is used in everyday life because it is what keeps hospitals running, cellphones active, schools functioning, and so much more. Software is electricity; however, without electricity, we would act as caveman and I know I won't survive.
