It is widely accepted that the process of education is lifelong. Studies have exposed that the child is educated by the experiences it is exposed to in the womb yet before it is born.
Individuals get relaxed education from various sources. Family members, peers, books and mass media have a strong on the informal education of the individual.
Education as well say about the discipline, a body of theoretical and applied research that draws on added disciplines such as psychology, philosophy, computer science, linguistics, neuroscience, sociology and anthropology.

What are neural networks?
Neural network, as well known as a parallel dispersed processing network, is a computing paradigm that is generously modeled after cortical structures of the brain. It consists of constant processing elements called nodes or neurons that work jointly to create an output function. The output of a neural network relies on the collaboration of the individual neurons within the network to work. Processing of information by neural networks is characteristically done in parallel somewhat than in series (or sequentially) as in former binary computers or Von Neumann machines. Since it relies on its member neurons jointly to carry out its function, a unique property of a neural network is that it can still get its overall function even if some of the neurons are not functioning. In new words it is robust to tolerate error or failure. In addition, neural networks are more readily adaptable to fuzzy logic computing tasks than are Von Neumann machines.
By tradition, the term neural network has been used to refer to a network of biological neurons. In current usage, the term is time and again used to refer to artificial neural networks, which are collected artificial neurons or nodes. Thus the term 'Neural Network' has two different connotations:
* Biological neural networks are made up of actual biological neurons that are connected or functionally-related in the peripheral nervous system or the central nervous system
* Artificial neural networks are made up of interconnecting artificial neurons (generally simplified neurons) intended to model (or mimic) some properties of biological neural networks.

Short note on Poppy Flower
A poppy is any of numerous jazzy flowers, unsurprisingly with one per stem, belonging to the poppy family. They consist of numerous nice-looking wildflower species with flashy flowers found rising singularly or in large groups, many species are as well grown in gardens. Those that are grown in gardens contain large plants used in a mixed herbaceous boarder and small plants that are grown in rock or alpine gardens.
The flower color of poppy species contain: white, pink, yellow, orange, red and blue, some have dark center markings. The species that have been cultivated for numerous years as well include many other colors ranging from dark solid colors to soft pallid shades. The center of the flower has a whorl of stamens bounded by a cup or bowl shaped collection of 4 to 6 petals. Before blooming, the petals are wrinkled in bud and as blooming finishes the petals often lay flat before falling away.
