Answer:
An ordered collection of data is called a database. A database offers a structure to arrange the data rather than having it all in a list in random order.
Explanation:
Data:
Data are fundamental truths or values. Every action a computer takes involves data in some form. Computers would be largely worthless without data. Therefore, it is crucial to comprehend what data are, how to represent them, and how to organize them. In the scientific world, the word "data" is regarded as plural, as in "The data are collected," not "The data is collected." However, not everyone adheres to this, thus occasionally you will encounter the singular form of "data."
Database Structure:
- A database table is one of the most often used data structures. There are columns and rows in a database table. Another name for a database table is a two-dimensional array. Each value in an array is represented by a unique index, similar to a list of items. Two indices are used in a two-dimensional array, and they stand for the rows and columns of a table.
- Each row in a database is referred to as a record. An object or an entity are other names for a record. Or to put it another way, a database table is a grouping of records. The items you are interested in are the records in a table, such as the books in a library catalog or the clients in a sales database. A field represents a single value for each record and corresponds to a column in the table. An attribute is another name for a field. To put it another way, a record is a group of connected attributes that together form a single database item.
