Field (computer science)

In computer science, data can be divided into parts known as fields. For example, a computer might represent today's date in three fields: the day, the month, and the year. A field typically contains a defined type and size. Computer programs use records to manipulate data. A record is composed of a series of fields that can have varying types and sizes.
