research documentation

Research documentation involves systematically recording all steps, methods, data, and findings related to a study or investigation. It ensures that the process is transparent, reproducible, and verifiable by others. This includes detailed notes, data sets, experiments, analysis processes, and conclusions. Proper documentation helps maintain integrity, supports validation of results, and provides a record for future reference. Essentially, it’s like a detailed journal of how the research was conducted, allowing others to understand, replicate, or build upon the work accurately.
