Dictionaries (class dict) are mutable mappings tying keys and corresponding values. Python has special syntax to create dictionaries ({key: value})

  3. Database index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_index

    To process this statement without an index the database software must look at the last_name column on every row in the table (this is known as a full table scan).

    This allows indexes to be defined for common query conditions that depend on data in a table, but are not actually stored in that table.

    So, to keep a table within a line, the workaround is to put the whole line into a table, then embed a table within a table, using the outer table to force the whole line to stay together. Consider the following examples: Wikicode (showing table forces line-break)

  8. Database storage structures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_storage_structures

    Database tables and indexes may be stored on disk in one of a number of forms, including ordered/unordered flat files, ISAM, heap files, hash buckets, or B+ trees. Each form has its own particular advantages and disadvantages. The most commonly used forms are B-trees and ISAM.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_(database)

    In a database, a table is a collection of related data organized in table format; consisting of columns and rows. In relational databases, and flat file databases, a table is a set of data elements (values) using a model of vertical columns (identifiable by name) and horizontal rows, the cell being the unit where a row and column intersect.
