<h2><span style="font-size: larger"><strong>1. Principle of Bioinformatics</strong></span></h2>
<p><b><span style="font-size: medium">Definition of bioinformatics</span></b></p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000">'Bio-' </span>word orginated originated from Greek (biography), it means a combining form 'life' . If&nbsp; 'Bio'&nbsp; play a role of prefix, it indicate and involve life or living organisms.</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000">'informat(ion) + -ics' </span>is information science. It means this science has all processes what informations are gathering, manipulating, storing, retrieving and classifying.</p>
<p>In my own word, the definition of bioinformatics is all processes that information related to living organisms and life are gathering, manipulating, storing, retireving retrieving and classifying.</p>

<p style="text-align: left">Many living things&nbsp;are made of cells and cells are made of many molecules. Bioinformatics is based on level of biological organization, so it can get the information from macromolecule to whole organism. It means bioinformatics can help to analyze from the macromoleule macromolecule likes DNA to the whole organism likes human.</p><p style="text-align: left">In addition, according to 'Wikipedia, informatics', &quot;The English term <i>Informatics</i> is sometimes understood as meaning the same as <a title="Computer science" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_science">computer science</a>. The German word <i>Informatik</i> is usually translated to English as <i>computer science</i>.&quot;</p>
<p style="text-align: left">Therefore, Principle of Bioinformatics is that gather the information(data) and&nbsp;analyze by using both Computer Sciences and Biology field.<hr />
