A distinction is sometimes made between \"data\" and \"information\"; generally, data have to be somehow \"digested\" (manipulated, summarized, organized, or interpreted) in order to become information. No rigid standardization in terminology has appeared in this regard, although generally the term \"information\" is rarely applied to material which is \"raw.\"Individual raw facts that have not yet been interpreted, organized, or evaluated.The term utilized to refer to numerical digits, alphabetic characters, and symbols employed for the purpose of maintaining records is \"alphanumeric.\""}
