      METHOD OF DATA PROCESSING
    
  4. Manual Data Processing: The manual data processing is a processing of using physical energising in performing mathematics Operations. Here, human labour is used for data processing which makes processig to be slow, inacurate and costly.

  5. Mechanical Data Processing: The mechanical data processing was a futher development of manual processing. This method is faster and more accurate than the manaul.

  6. Elecctronic Data Processing: The electronic method makes it possible for manaul and mechanical to be substituted with electronic computers. The processing is faster than the mechanical method. They stored program concept and allow meditation to be done using program execution. The program can be stored and modified with highspeed (Speed of light)
