A punched card or punch
card is a piece of stiff paper that can be used to contain digital data
represented by the presence or absence of holes in predefined positions.
Digital data can be used for data processing applications or, in earlier
examples, used to directly control automated machinery. Let's assume Google has a storage capacity of
15 exabytes, or 15,000,000,000,000,000,000 bytes. A punch card can hold about
80 characters, and a box of cards holds 2000 cards. 15 exabytes of punch cards
would be enough to cover my home region, New England, to a depth of about 4.5
kilometers.
