The incorrect data is worse than no data in the following ways:

  • If you precede your work with wrong data then there is a large possibility that incorrect data will result in wrong result and this wrong result can destroy the work which you have done. But if you go with the no data you will not proceed further with your work rather than losing the work you have done.
  • The data used in applications such as software for military, spacecraft aviation stocks can lead a major problem if there is a very small miniscule difference in the crucial data...
