      Output

    • E.

      Update

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Insert
    C. Delete
    E. Update
    Explanation
    The question asks for three valid data manipulation language (DML) commands. The correct answer is insert, delete, and update. These are indeed valid DML commands used to manipulate data in a database. The insert command is used to add new records to a table, the delete command is used to remove records from a table, and the update command is used to modify existing records in a table. The other options, commit and output, are not DML commands and are not used for data manipulation.

  • 8. 

    Check the correct answer

    • A.

      You can delete data by using stored procedure

    • B.

      A function must have a return value

    • C.

      Stored procedure must have a return value

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. You can delete data by using stored procedure
    B. A function must have a return value
    Explanation
    A stored procedure is a set of SQL statements that can be executed to perform a specific task, such as deleting data from a database. Therefore, the statement "You can delete data by using stored procedure" is a correct answer. On the other hand, a function is also a set of SQL statements, but it must have a return value. This means that a function is used to perform a specific task and return a value, while a stored procedure is used to perform a task without necessarily returning a value.

    Rate this question:

  • 9. 

    One different between A function and a stored procedure

    • A.

      Must return a value

    • B.

      Must be called from a trigger

    • C.

      Cannot contain a transaction .

    • D.

      Cannot accept parameters

    Correct Answer
    A. Must return a value
    Explanation
    A function is a subprogram that must return a value after performing a specific task. It is used to perform calculations or manipulate data and is typically called within an expression or statement. On the other hand, a stored procedure is a set of SQL statements that are executed as a single unit. Unlike a function, a stored procedure does not necessarily need to return a value. It can be used to perform various tasks such as inserting or updating data, generating reports, or executing multiple SQL statements. Therefore, the difference between a function and a stored procedure is that a function must return a value, whereas a stored procedure may or may not return a value.

    Correct Answer
    A. Stored procedure
    Explanation
    A stored procedure is the correct answer because it is a database object that allows you to store a set of SQL statements that can be executed at a later time. It can be used to store and process data in a database, making it suitable for storing data about textbooks that can be processed at a later time. A stored procedure can be called and executed whenever needed, providing a convenient way to store and retrieve data efficiently.

    Rate this question:

  • 11. 

    This question requires that you evaluate the underlined text to determined if its correct Views are database objects that contain all of the data in database Instruction  Review  the underline text if it makes the statement correct select No change is needed  if the statement is incorrect

    • A.

      Tables

    • B.

      Queries

    • C.

      Stored procedures

    • D.

      No change is needed

    Correct Answer
    A. Tables
    Explanation
    The underlined text states that "Views are database objects that contain all of the data in the database." This statement is incorrect. Views in a database are virtual tables that display data from one or more tables in the database. They do not contain all of the data in the database, but rather provide a way to organize and present data in a specific way. Therefore, the correct answer is "No change is needed" as the underlined text is incorrect.

    Rate this question:

  • 12. 

    Which two elements are required to define a column ??

    • A.

      Name

    • B.

       A data type

    • C.

      An index

    • D.

      A key

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Name
    B.  A data type
    Explanation
    To define a column, two elements are required: a name and a data type. The name serves as the identifier for the column, while the data type specifies the type of data that can be stored in the column (e.g., text, number, date). An index and a key are not necessary to define a column, as they are optional features used for optimizing database performance and enforcing data integrity, respectively.

    Correct Answer
    A. Data type
    Explanation
    The amount of storage space allocated to a value in a column is determined by its data type. Different data types require different amounts of storage space. For example, a numeric data type may require more storage space compared to a string data type. The data type also determines the range of values that can be stored in the column and the operations that can be performed on it.

    Correct Answer
    C. The INT data type contains only whole numbers
    Explanation
    The explanation for the given correct answer is that the INT data type is specifically designed to store whole numbers. It does not allow for decimal values or any other type of data. Therefore, any value assigned to an INT data type will be a whole number.

    Rate this question:

  • 15. 

    You need to store the first name , Last name and Student ID for 100 students This information will be stored in a table as :

    • A.

      100 row and three columns

    • B.

      100 items and three cells

    • C.

      Three row and 100 columns

    • D.

      Three  items and  100  cells

    Correct Answer
    A. 100 row and three columns
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "100 row and three columns" because in a table, each row represents a different student and each column represents a different attribute or piece of information about the student. In this case, there are 100 students, so there would be 100 rows, and there are three attributes (first name, last name, and student ID), so there would be three columns.

    Rate this question:

  • 16. 

    You have a table named  student that contains 100 rows , some of the row have a NULL value  in The first name column You execute the following statement Delete from student What is the result ??

    • A.

    • C.

      You will receive an error message

    • D.

      All rows and  the table definition will be deleted

    Correct Answer
    A. All rows in the table will be deleted
    Explanation
    The correct answer is that all rows in the table will be deleted. The statement "Delete from student" does not specify any conditions or criteria for deletion, so it will delete all rows in the table, regardless of the values in the first name column.

    First normal form requires that a database excludes

    • A.

      Repeating groups

    • B.

      Foreign keys

    • C.

       Composite keys

    • D.

       Duplicate rows

    Correct Answer
    A. Repeating groups
    Explanation
    First normal form (1NF) is a fundamental principle in database design that requires eliminating repeating groups in a database. Repeating groups refer to multiple occurrences of the same set of attributes within a single table. By removing repeating groups, the database becomes more organized and efficient. Foreign keys and composite keys are not excluded in 1NF; they are used to establish relationships between tables and ensure data integrity. Duplicate rows, on the other hand, are not allowed in 1NF as they can lead to data inconsistency and redundancy. Therefore, the correct answer is "Repeating groups."

      Deterministic

    • E.

      Relationally dependent

    Correct Answer
    C. Functionally dependent
    Explanation
    Functionally dependent is the correct answer because it describes the relationship between ProductID and ProductCategory in the table. In a functional dependency, the value of one attribute (ProductID) determines the value of another attribute (ProductCategory). In this case, the value of ProductID uniquely determines the value of ProductCategory, indicating a functional dependency between the two attributes.

      A new row in the table

    • C.

      An error stating that duplicate IDs are not allowed

    • D.

      A syntax error

    Correct Answer
    B. A new row in the table
    Explanation
    The given statement "INSERT INTO Road VALUES (1234, 36)" is a valid SQL statement that inserts a new row into the Road table. The values provided for the Road ID and Distance columns are not NULL, so there will be no error stating that NULL values are not allowed. Since the table definition does not specify any constraints on duplicate IDs, there will be no error stating that duplicate IDs are not allowed. As the statement is syntactically correct, there will be no syntax error. Therefore, the result of executing this statement will be a new row added to the table.

Examples of DDL statements include CREATE, ALTER, and DROP. DCL statements are used to control access and permissions to the database. DML statements are used to manipulate data within the database, such as INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE. DAL is not a recognized category of SQL statements.

    Which two keys establish a relationship between two tables? (Choose two.)

    • A.

      Primary

    • B.

      Local

    • C.

      Superkey

    • D.

      Foreign

    • E.

      Candidate

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Primary
    D. Foreign
    Explanation
    Primary and foreign keys are used to establish relationships between two tables in a relational database. The primary key is a unique identifier for each record in a table and is used to ensure data integrity and enforce referential integrity. The foreign key is a field in one table that refers to the primary key in another table, creating a link between the two tables. This allows for the establishment of relationships and the ability to retrieve related data from multiple tables using join operations.

    You have a table named Product that contains the following data. The PrcducrID column is the primary key. The CategoryID column is a foreign key to a separate table named Category. You execute the following statement: INSERT INTO Product - VALUES (3296, 'Table', 4444) What is the result?

    • A.

      A primary key constraint violation

    • B.

      A new row in the Category table

    • C.

      A new row in the Product table

    • D.

      A syntax error

    • E.

      A foreign key constraint violation

    Correct Answer
    A. A primary key constraint violation
    Explanation
    The given statement is trying to insert a new row into the "Product" table with a ProductID of 3296, a ProductName of 'Table', and a CategoryID of 4444. However, the ProductID column is defined as the primary key in the table, which means it must be unique for each row. Since there is already a row in the table with a ProductID of 3296, the statement will result in a primary key constraint violation.

    You need to delete a database table. Which data definition language (DDL) keyword should you use?

    • A.

      Drop

    • B.

      Alter

    • C.

      Truncate

    • D.

      Delete

    Correct Answer
    A. Drop
    Explanation
    To delete a database table, the correct DDL keyword to use is "Drop." The "Drop" keyword is used to remove an entire table from the database. It permanently deletes the table and all the data stored within it. This is different from other options like "Alter," which is used to modify the structure of a table, "Truncate," which is used to remove all the data from a table but keeps the structure intact, and "Delete," which is used to remove specific rows from a table but does not delete the entire table.
