If I were to hold data for a service like that I would use an excel sheet to hold information that we need on users. If I were using an information storing system like amazon I would keep track on customers interests and specific info that I need to hold to make sure sales are up. I would rows for the types of categories each customer purchased. I…[Read more]

I haven’t made these mistakes before. If I did have to pick one that I felt was the most important it would be “Don’t miss a data set”. I feel like this is important because if you miss a data set then you will be missing information. Without the information it will be hard to create an excel spreadsheet at all.

An example of conventional wisdom that I’ve heard is “if at first you don’t succeed try,try again.” I would test this hypothesis by selecting various different tasks and seeing if doing it over and over again could help a person succeed at this task.
