In the world of sports, statistics are important. Everyone taking part, those watching as well as sports agents need to know exactly how well they are or have been performing at any moment in time. Computers are used in sport to collect and keep track of such data. With the help of a computer a team manager is able to create a spreadsheet database where he'll be able to store all the stats for the team. If such records are kept throughout the season he will be able to use it to help him decide which players to keep and those that are expendable. Media outlets are also able to use the same kind of data when writing and publishing in-depth stories relating to the performance of certain players or teams.<br />Keywords: computer, sports, statisticsProf Dr.Mazin Hadi kzar<br />Al-Mustaqbal University College<br />[email protected]
