Mechanical in data processing?

[Edit]

Mechanical in data processing? Yes or no

Yes or no, depending on what the task is. As an example, if you are inputting data into a computer via keyboard, magnetic tape, hard disk file transfer, or keypunch card, the task is completely mechanical.
On the other hand, if you are performing a data processing task related to reading a printed report and manually compiling data, it is not at all mechanical.
