Memory
Memory is the ability to encode, store and retrieve information and experiences.
Definition
Memory includes many processes: information coding, consolidation, storage and retrieval. It doesn't work like a perfect recording of the past; memories can be reconstructed, distorted and updated by emotions, context and subsequent experiences. In practice, memory is the basis for learning, identity, decisions and predicting the future.
