Is it possible to specify what kind of data you allow in a database?
- A.
Yes
- B.
No
Correct Answer
A. YesExplanation
Yes, it is possible to specify what kind of data you allow in a database. This can be done through the use of data types and data constraints. Data types define the format and size of the data that can be stored in a particular column of a database table. For example, a column can be defined as an integer data type, which means it can only store whole numbers. Data constraints, on the other hand, define rules or conditions that the data must meet in order to be stored in the database. This allows for the enforcement of data integrity and ensures that only valid data is stored in the database.Rate this question:
