Abstract: Abstract This chapter establishes the nature of data as the making of differences in some substance with the intention of communicating something to somebody. Data is formed within data structures and such data structures are used both to make messages and to form records of things. But data structures are not just passive constructs; they act. They serve to communicate things independently of their creator.
