sisendid

Sisendid is the Estonian term for inputs. It functions as the plural of sisend, used to describe data, signals, or events supplied to a system. The singular form sisend denotes a single input. The term is widely used in technical writing across computing, electronics, and data processing.

In electronics and control engineering, sisendid are the input signals from sensors, switches, or external devices that influence a system's behavior. In software development, sisendid encompass user inputs (such as keystrokes or clicks), configuration values, files, and data streams that programs read and act upon. In data science and data processing, sisendid refer to data fed into models or pipelines, including feature vectors, training sets, and measurement records.

The concept is synonymous with the English word input and is the standard Estonian wording in manuals, specifications, and academic literature. The grammatical forms are sisend (singular) and sisendid (plural). When documenting interfaces, designers describe the expected formats, ranges, and validation rules for sisendid to ensure proper processing and outputs.

Examples of usage include: “Kasutaja sisend on vajalik programmi käivitamiseks,” meaning “The user input is required to start the program,” and “Sisendid on kontrollitud enne töötlemist,” meaning “Inputs are validated before processing.”
