  2. Database dump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_dump

    A database dump contains a record of the table structure and/or the data from a database and is usually in the form of a list of SQL statements ("SQL dump"). A database dump is most often used for backing up a database so that its contents can be restored in the event of data loss. Corrupted databases can often be recovered by analysis of the dump.

  3. Truncate (SQL) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truncate_(SQL)

    In SQL, the TRUNCATE TABLE statement is a data manipulation language (DML) [1] operation that deletes all rows of a table without causing a triggered action. The result of this operation quickly removes all data from a table , typically bypassing a number of integrity enforcing mechanisms.

  4. Table (database) - Wikipedia

    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. [1]

  5. Null (SQL) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Null_(SQL)

    E. F. Codd mentioned nulls as a method of representing missing data in the relational model in a 1975 paper in the FDT Bulletin of ACM-SIGMOD.Codd's paper that is most commonly cited with the semantics of Null (as adopted in SQL) is his 1979 paper in the ACM Transactions on Database Systems, in which he also introduced his Relational Model/Tasmania, although much of the other proposals from ...

  6. Flat-file database - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flat-file_database

    This specific example uses only one table. The columns include: name (a person's name, second column); team (the name of an athletic team supported by the person, third column); and a numeric unique ID, (used to uniquely identify records, first column). Here is an example textual representation of the described data:

  7. Unnormalized form - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unnormalized_form

    While tables have to be stored and presented in some order, this is unstable and implementation dependent. If a specific ordering needs to be represented, it has to be in the form of data, e.g. a "number" column. Columns have unique names within the same table. Each column has a domain (or data type) which defines the allowed values in the column.

  8. Sampling frame - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sampling_frame

    the frame has additional information about the units that allow the use of more advanced sampling frames; every element of the population of interest is present in the frame; every element of the population is present only once in the frame; no elements from outside the population of interest are present in the frame; the data is 'up-to-date' [4]

  9. One-to-one (data model) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One-to-one_(data_model)

    A country has only one capital city, and a capital city is the capital of only one country. (Not valid for some countries).. In systems analysis, a one-to-one relationship is a type of cardinality that refers to the relationship between two entities (see also entity–relationship model) A and B in which one element of A may only be linked to one element of B, and vice versa.
