I’m working on a computer science discussion question and need guidance to help me understand better.

Data mining is a collection of computer technologies that analyzeinformation to discover previously unknown and potentially usefulinformation, including relationships and patterns. By applying datamining technologies you can predict future sell trends and customerbehaviors. You can identify patterns of financial fraud and terroristattacks.
