Encik Khalid may detect the bad characteristic if the system is unreliable. This can be seen when the information received is bias‚ corrupted and does not represent what it seek to be represent. If Encik Khalid did not believe and depend on the information given by the system‚ thus‚ the system is also representing a bad system. To ensure

BAR DIAGRAMS Bar diagrams are one of easiest and the most commonly used devices of presenting most of the business and economic data. These are satisfactory for categorical data or series. They consist a group of equidistant rectangles‚ one of each group or category of the data in which the values or the magnitudes are represented by the length or height of the rectangles‚ the width of the rectangles being arbitrary and immaterial. These diagrams are called one-dimensional because in such diagrams
