In this appendix, which should be studied immediately after Chapter 3, we: • Describe and illustrate SQL views, which extend the DML capabilities of SQL. • Describe and illustrate SQL Persistent Stored Modules (SQL/PSM), and create user-defined functions. • Describe and use DBMS data import techniques to import Microsoft Excel worksheet data into a database.

A. UNION B. UNION ALL C. INTERSECT D. MINUS Answer: A. Set operators are used to combine the results of two ormore SELECT statements.Valid set operators in Oracle 11g are UNION, UNION ALL, INTERSECT, and MINUS. When used with two SELECT statements, the UNION set operator returns the results of both queries.However,if there are any duplicates, they are removed, and the duplicated record is listed only once.To include duplicates in the results,use the UNION ALL set operator.INTERSECT lists only records that are returned by both queries; the MINUS set operator removes the second query's results from the output if they are also found in the first query's results. INTERSECT and MINUS set operations produce unduplicated results. 2.Which SET operator does the following figure indicate? A. UNION B. UNION ALL C. INTERSECT D. MINUS Answer: B.

  • On the Logic of SQL Nulls
    On the Logic of SQL Nulls Enrico Franconi and Sergio Tessaris Free University of Bozen-Bolzano, Italy lastname @inf.unibz.it Abstract The logic of nulls in databases has been subject of invest- igation since their introduction in Codd's Relational Model, which is the foundation of the SQL standard. In the logic based approaches to modelling relational databases proposed so far, nulls are considered as representing unknown values. Such existential semantics fails to capture the behaviour of the SQL standard. We show that, according to Codd's Relational Model, a SQL null value represents a non-existing value; as a consequence no indeterminacy is introduced by SQL null values. In this paper we introduce an extension of first-order logic accounting for predicates with missing arguments. We show that the domain inde- pendent fragment of this logic is equivalent to Codd's relational algebra with SQL nulls. Moreover, we prove a faithful encoding of the logic into standard first-order logic, so that we can employ classical deduction ma- chinery. 1 Relational Databases and SQL Null Values Consider a database instance with null values over the relational schema fR=2g, and a SQL query asking for the tuples in R being equal to themselves: 1 2 1 | 2 SELECT * FROM R ---+--- R : a b WHERE R.1 = R.1 AND R.2 = R.2 ; ) a | b b N (1 row) Figure 1. In SQL, the query above returns the table R if and only if the table R does not have any null value, otherwise it returns just the tuples not containing a null value, i.e., in this case only the first tuple ha; bi.

    SQL Stored Routines Draft 2017-06-09 www.DBTechNet.org SQL Stored Routines Procedural Extensions of SQL and External Routines in Transactional Context Authors: Martti Laiho, Fritz Laux, Ilia Petrov, Dimitris Dervos Parts of application logic can be stored at database server-side as “stored routines”, that is as stored procedures, user-defined-functions, and triggers. The client-side application logic makes use of these routines in the context of database transactions, except that the application does not have control over triggers, but triggers control the data access actions of the application. The tutorial introduces the procedural extension of the SQL language, the concepts of stored routines in SQL/PSM of ISO SQL standard, and the implementations in some mainstream DBMS products available for hands-on experimentations in the free virtual database laboratory of DBTechNet.org. licensed on Creative Commons license for non-commercial use SQL Stored Routines www.DBTechNet.org SQL Stored Routines - Procedural Extensions of SQL in Transactional Context This is a companion tutorial to the “SQL Transactions – Theory and hands-on labs” of DBTech VET project available at www.dbtechnet.org/download/SQL-Transactions_handbook_EN.pdf .

  • How to Handle Missing Information Without Using NULL
    How To Handle Missing Information Without Using NULL Hugh Darwen [email protected] www.TheThirdManifesto.com First presentation: 09 May 2003, Warwick University Updated 27 September 2006 “Databases, Types, and The Relational Model: The Third Manifesto”, by C.J. Date and Hugh Darwen (3rd edition, Addison-Wesley, 2005), contains a categorical proscription against support for anything like SQL’s NULL, in its blueprint for relational database language design. The book, however, does not include any specific and complete recommendation as to how the problem of “missing information” might be addressed in the total absence of nulls. This presentation shows one way of doing it, assuming the support of a DBMS that conforms to The Third Manifesto (and therefore, we claim, to The Relational Model of Data). It is hoped that alternative solutions based on the same assumption will be proposed so that comparisons can be made. 1 Dedicated to Edgar F. Codd 1923-2003 Ted Codd, inventor of the Relational Model of Data, died on April 18th, 2003.

  • SQL:1999, Formerly Known As SQL3
    SQL:1999, formerly known as SQL3 Andrew Eisenberg Sybase, Concord, MA 01742 [email protected] Jim Melton Sandy, UT 84093 [email protected] Background For several years now, you’ve been hearing and reading about an emerging standard that everybody has been calling SQL3. Intended as a major enhancement of the current second generation SQL standard, commonly called SQL-92 because of the year it was published, SQL3 was originally planned to be issued in about 1996…but things didn’t go as planned. As you may be aware, SQL3 has been characterized as “object-oriented SQL” and is the foundation for several object-relational database management systems (including Oracle’s ORACLE8, Informix’ Universal Server, IBM’s DB2 Universal Database, and Cloudscape’s Cloudscape, among others). This is widely viewed as a “good thing”, but it has had a downside, too: it took nearly 7 years to develop, instead of the planned 3 or 4. As we shall show, SQL:1999 is much more than merely SQL-92 plus object technology. It involves additional features that we consider to fall into SQL’s relational heritage, as well as a total restructuring of the standards documents themselves with an eye towards more effective standards progression in the future. Standards Development Process The two de jure organizations actively involved in SQL standardization, and therefore in the development of SQL: 1999, are ANSI and ISO. More specifically, the international community works through ISO/IEC JTC1 (Joint Technical Committee 1), a committee formed by the International Organization for Standardization in conjunction with the International Electrotechnical Commission.
