True or False: Raw facts that describe characteristics of an event or object and can be entered into a computer are known as cookies.

The correct answer is false because cookies are not defined as raw facts or data that describe characteristics of an event or object. Instead, cookies are small pieces of data stored on the user’s computer by the web browser while browsing a website. They are used primarily to collect information about a user's activity and preferences on a specific website. This enables the website to remember the user and their preferences on subsequent visits.

Raw facts or data entries that represent characteristics of an event or object are better described as "data" or "information," rather than as cookies. Cookies may contain various types of data, including user preferences, session identifiers, and tracking information, but the term does not encompass the broader category of raw facts. Therefore, the statement that equates cookies with raw facts is inaccurate, making the assertion false.
