Data ( /ˈdeɪtə/ DAY-tə, /ˈdætə/ DA-tə, or /ˈdɑːtə/ DAH-tə) are values of qualitative or quantitative variables, belonging to a set of items. Data in computing (or data processing) are often represented by a combination of items organized in rows and multiple variables organized in columns. Data are typically the results of measurements and can be visualised using graphs or images. Data as an abstract concept can be viewed as the lowest level of abstraction from which information and then knowledge are derived. Raw data, i.e., unprocessed data, refers to a collection of numbers, characters and is a relative term; data processing commonly occurs by stages, and the "processed data" from one stage may be considered the "raw data" of the next. Field data refers to raw data collected in an uncontrolled in situ environment. Experimental data refers to data generated within the context of a scientific investigation by observation and recording.
The word data is the plural of datum, neuter past participle of the Latin dare, "to give", hence "something given". In discussions of problems in geometry, mathematics, engineering, and so on, the terms givens and data are used interchangeably. Such usage is the origin of data as a concept in computer science or data processing: data are numbers, words, images, etc., accepted as they stand.
Girl, good guys don't cry
Oh, this tears will never dry
................................
Girl, strangers side by side
There's loneliness to hide
My heart is ..............
Out of tune tonight
G.t.o. dreaming baby
Young and strong and feeling baby
G.t.o. oh stealing baby
Rocking and dreaming lady
Make my dreams come true
Come on, come on
Come on, come on
Make my dreams come true
Girl, minutes from downtown
In the city of the lost and found
I will breaking hearts around
Girl, from the point of no return
That's a fire that will burn
My heart ................
