Elektroniczne przetwarzanie informacji test

Find Out if Electronic Information Processing Is the Right Major for You!

1. Do you enjoy understanding how digital systems collect, store, and transform data?

2. Are you comfortable working with both hardware (sensors, circuits) and software (algorithms, code) to process information?

3. Do you enjoy working with signals (audio, visual, sensor) and learning how to filter, compress, or extract features?

4. Are you interested in algorithms and programming to automate data processing tasks?

5. Do you enjoy analyzing large streams of information to detect patterns, anomalies, or trends?

6. Are you curious about communication protocols and how information is reliably transmitted between devices?

7. Do you care about data integrity, security, and ethical handling of information?

8. Are you comfortable troubleshooting systems when data pipelines fail or outputs are unexpected?

9. Do you enjoy working with visualization tools to present processed information clearly to others?

10. Are you motivated by solving real-world problems using electronic systems and information processing?

Definitions and quotes

Information
Information is any entity or form that provides the answer to a question of some kind or resolves uncertainty. It is thus related to data and knowledge, as data represents values attributed to parameters, and knowledge signifies understanding of real things or abstract concepts. As it regards data, the information's existence is not necessarily coupled to an observer (it exists beyond an event horizon, for example), while in the case of knowledge, the information requires a cognitive observer.
Information
Wisdom is dead. Long live information.
Mason Cooley (1927-2002), American academic and aphorist. City Aphorisms (1984).
Information
Information smacks of safe neutrality; it is simple, helpful heaping of unassailable facts. In that innocent guise, its the perfect starting point for a technocratic political agenda that wants as little exposure for its objectives as possible. After all, what can anyone say against information?
Theodore Roszak, The Cult of Information: The folklore of computers and the true art of thinking, 1968, p. 19.
Information
Information can tell us everything. It has all the answers. But they are answers to questions we have not asked, and which doubtless don’t even arise.
Jean Baudrillard French semiologist. Cool Memories, Ch. 5 (1987, trans. 1990).
