The results of distance calculation show testing data (new cases) No RM 4247 approaching 3 training data (old cases) with a distance value of 2.24. The addition of the calculation of similarity in the calculation strengthens the results of the diagnosis, with the largest similarity value of 79% at No RM 1090, then the testing data (new cases) didignosis mild acute dehydration diarrhea]]>
