Dirty data, also known as rogue data, [1] are inaccurate, incomplete or inconsistent data, especially in a computer system or database. [2]Dirty data can contain such mistakes as spelling or punctuation errors, incorrect data associated with a field, incomplete or outdated data, or even data that has been duplicated in the database.
This is a list of well-known data structures. For a wider list of terms, see list of terms relating to algorithms and data structures. For a comparison of running times for a subset of this list see comparison of data structures.
The problem of database repair is a question about relational databases which has been studied in database theory, and which is a particular kind of data cleansing. The problem asks about how we can "repair" an input relational database in order to make it satisfy integrity constraints .
A data structure known as a hash table.. In computer science, a data structure is a data organization and storage format that is usually chosen for efficient access to data. [1] [2] [3] More precisely, a data structure is a collection of data values, the relationships among them, and the functions or operations that can be applied to the data, [4] i.e., it is an algebraic structure about data.
Data modeling during systems analysis: In systems analysis logical data models are created as part of the development of new databases. Data modeling is also used as a technique for detailing business requirements for specific databases. It is sometimes called database modeling because a data model is eventually implemented in a database. [4]
Semi-structured data [1] is a form of structured data that does not obey the tabular structure of data models associated with relational databases or other forms of data tables, but nonetheless contains tags or other markers to separate semantic elements and enforce hierarchies of records and fields within the data.
The NIST Dictionary of Algorithms and Data Structures [1] is a reference work maintained by the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology. It defines a large number of terms relating to algorithms and data structures. For algorithms and data structures not necessarily mentioned here, see list of algorithms and list of data structures.
In the context of storage such as in a database or spreadsheet a record is often called a row and each field is called a column. [2] [3] [4] [5]In object-oriented programming, an object is a record that contains state and method fields.
