ER Diagrams to Table

REDUCING E-R DIAGRAM TO TABLE - A database which conforms to an E R diagram can be represented by collection of tables .For each entity set and for each relationship set in the database, we will create unique tables, which is assigned the name of the corresponding entity set or relationship sets . Each table has a no. of columns which have unique names. Each row in the table corresponds to an entity or a relationship.

REPRESENTATION OF STRONG ENTITY SET -Let E be a strong entity set with descriptive attributes a1, a2....aN . We represent this entity by table called E with N distinct columns, each of which corresponds to one of the attributes of E.

REPRESENTATION OF RELATIONSHIP SET - Let R be a relation ship set involving entity set E1,E2....En Let attribute(R) consists of 'm' attributes We can represent this relation ship set by a table called R with m distinct columns, each of which corresponds to one of the attributes in attribute (R) plus the primary key of E1..En.

REPRESENTION OF WEAK ENTITY SETS - Let A be a weak entity sets with attributes a1, a2, a3....aN. Let B be the strong entity set on which A is existence dependant. Let the primary key of B consists of the attributes b1,b2,b3...bk. We represent the entity set A by a table with one column each for attribute of the set {a1,a2,a3, ....aN} U { b1,b2,b3..bk}

Introduction to Data Structures

Visit My Data Structure Blog for Programs... It is important for every Computer Science student to understand the concept of Information and how it is organized or how it can be utilized. If we arrange some data in an appropriate sequence, then it forms a Structure and gives us a meaning. This meaning is called Information . A data structure is a particular way of storing and organizing data in a computer so that it can be used efficiently. Data may be organized in many different ways. The logical model of a particular organization of data in a computer is called data structure. The choice of the model based on two considerations. It should be reflect the data in the real world. It should be simple that one can effectively process the data when necessary. E.g. Array, linked list, stack, queue, tree, graph Data structure can be classified into two: Linear: A data structure is said to be linear if its elements form a sequence E.g. Array, linked list, stack, queue Non-Linear: A dat

Basic Linux Commands For Beginner's

Basic Linux Commands for Beginners Linux is an Operating System’s Kernel. You might have heard of UNIX. Well, Linux is a UNIX clone. But it was actually created by Linus Torvalds from Scratch. Linux is free and open-source, that means that you can simply change anything in Linux and redistribute it in your own name! There are several Linux Distributions, commonly called “distros”. A few of them are: Mint Ubuntu Linux Red Hat Enterprise Linux Debian Fedora Kali Linux is Mainly used in Servers. About 90% of the Internet is powered by Linux Servers. This is because Linux is fast, secure, and free! The main problem of using Windows Servers are their cost. This is solved by using Linux Servers. Forgot to mention, the OS that runs in about 80% of the Smartphones in the World, Android, is also made from the Linux Kernel. Yes, Linux is amazing! A simple example of its security is that most of the viruses in the world run on Windows, but not on Linux
