That's applicable to the Basic Relational Architecture.
As is the Lookup Table

Why, after all these years, is there still no standard for basic features of SQL. For example, the syntax for returning only [n] rows. Top vs Limit[^] This sort of stuff drives me nuts, as it requires a call out to the specific DB interface to properly generate the SQL for specific DB provider. Argh. And if you want to do something more complex, like offsets and limits, this[^] is a fun read illustrating the syntax differences. Marc
Imperative to Functional Programming Succinctly Higher Order Programming
Speaking as someone who started out in COBOL: If you want a database, write one. The only reasons to use a database written by someone else are: a: If you have to integrate data with another system (in which case, you put your feet up and let them write the database). b: If you use one of the wussy languages that isn't COBOL.
