Q1: Define an information system. Answer: An information system is the combination of technology (computers) and people that enable an organization to collect data, store them, and transform them into information. What is the difference between data and information? Answer: Data Information
Data are raw facts that are collected and stored by the information system. Information are data that converted by the information system into information

Q2:How you can convert data into information? Answer: By information system we can convert data into information. Q3:What is the difference between high level languages and machine language? Answer: High Level Languages English-like languages, they are close to the level of the programmer
Depending

Machine Language The computer understand only machine language, which is entirely composed of zeroes and ones.

on the type of language and the application, one of two methods is used for this translation process: interpretation or compilation.

Q4:What is the difference between compiler and interpreter? Answer: Compiler Interpreter

Entire program is translated Each statement has to be into machine language before converted to binary (0,1) each any attempt to execute it. time it is encountered in the program even if it has been converted previously. more difficult to find errors more easy to find errors during during compilation than during interpretation than during interpretation compilation Compiled program will run Translated program will slower faster than an interpreted than executing a compiled program. program.

Q5:Mention the main operations that all computers can perform. Answer: The main operations that all computers can perform are: 1-Input data (reading data) 2-Store data in internal memory 3-Perform arithmetic operation on data 4-Compare two values and select one of two alternative actions 5-Repeat a group of actions any number of times 6-Output the results of processing Q6:Define the variable Variable are memory location that used to store data. Q7:Why the memory location called variables? Answer: Since the values in a memory location can change as the process occurs, the memory locations are called variables. (( Chapter 2 Q8:Define the flowcharts.

Answer: The flowchart is a mean of visually presenting the flow of data through an information processing systems. Q9: Mention the steps for problem solving: Answer:
Define the problem Assemble known quantities and assign variable names Discard unimportant data Establish relationships and express them as equations Determine the proper algorithm by arranging the equations in correct sequence.
