Data validation

Hey kiddo! Do you know what data is? It’s like a bunch of information we collect from different places. Data validation is like making sure that this information is correct and good to use. It’s kind of like checking your homework to make sure you did it right!

For example, imagine you have a form to fill out to sign up for your favorite game. You need to put in your name, email, and age. Data validation would check to make sure you put in a real name and age, and that the email you typed is correct.

Sometimes people can make mistakes when they type in information, like missing a number or putting in a wrong letter. Data validation can help fix these mistakes so that the information is accurate.

Data validation is really important because it helps make sure that the information we are using is correct. It’s like making sure that all the pieces in a puzzle fit together perfectly, so that the puzzle makes sense!

Did that make sense, kiddo?
