Knowledge - Input , Process or Output???

There is a relationship between input and output & in between is the process that changes the input into output. This is a simple way to explain so it could be fruit becoming juice or dough+cheese+tomato becoming a pizza!!!

Now lets look at simple machines like tongs or wheel barrow or scissors that help reduce effort. All machines help in efficiency in terms of reducing input or increasing output.

The human brain & mind combination is the most complex machine. ( It can reverse the above in terms of making it things in efficient as well.) 

If knowledge is input then what will be output ???
Or is knowledge the process???

Consider education as knowledge & one will think that knowledge of how to multiply or divide is really the process and helps reach the out come. And in maths the right output is only one.

Now consider knowledge in terms of what is good or bad / right or wrong etc on the moral / value based measure.  Each person's view may be different and responses will be based on the individuals past experiences & knowledge.

Knowledge could also be an output. When we learn from our experiences and share that knowledge its our output & input for the receiver.

Knowledge is versatile & all pervasive - as Input, Process & Output
