Types of Databases & file,record,field
There are a lot of Databases like-
  • Mobile phones
  • Yellow pages
  • Address Book
  • Dictionary
  • Google


This is an example of a database of music containing album titles, song titles, artists, genre.



ON the left if what a record is, on the top is the field and the circle around the whole thing is a File.

Definitions of Database
This year we are learning about Databases.

This are definitions which will come in help sometime-

Field- A space allocated for a particular item of information. In database systems, fields are the smallest units of information you can access.
Record- Records are composed of fields
, each of which contains one item of information.
File- A collection of data
or information that has a name, called the filename. Almost all information stored in a computer must be in a file.
Query- A request for information from a database
.
Database- You can think of a database as an electronic filing system
. Traditional databases are organized by fields, records, and files.
Report- A formatted
and organized presentation of data. Most database mangaement systems include a report writier that enables you to design and generate reports.
DBMS- A collection of programs
that enables you to store, modifies, and extract information from a database.
Data Dictionary- In database management systems
, a file that defines the basic organization of a database. A data dictionary contains a list of all files in the database, the number of records in each file, and the names and types of each field.
Data Type- In programming, classification of a particular type of information.
