Part 1

1. Identify the record relationship between the following pairs of entities (If you
write a few examples of data, it makes it easier to answer, check/show the
relationship in both direction)
 Many-to-many relationship in Student Course selection, a student may have taken one course as
well as a course can have many students enrolled into it. For Example: Students can register only
one course also they are able to register many courses at a time. On the other side, a specific
course have many students registered in it.
 One-to-many, In this case a student can have membership of different clubs at a time. A club
contain many members. For example, a student can be a member of more than one clubs.
 One-to-many, a customer can have many invoices of many products, but a product cannot have
more than one owner. For Example, a customer buys some goods and invoice is generate for
those goods. There can be more than one invoice for goods purchased by one customer.

Access, Excel and Oracle, and recommend one for a small company. (Hint: Use
your definition/functions of DBMS, write the criteria, and compare.)

3. Write a few examples of data for understanding, and then write the SQL
Statements to retrieve data for the following queries. (You don't have to use
Access, just write the statements here)
a. Show all the information about SELECT * FROM Customer
customers
b. Show all purchase Information select customer.Name
from Customer customer
join ( select ID_cust
from Goods_Purchase
group by ID_cust
having count(distinct Goods_No) = (select
count(*) from Goods)
) d on customer.ID_cust = d.ID_cust

c. Show the Name and address of all SELECT customer.address

customers who live in S.F. Customer.Name,Customer.city
FROM table(Customer)
WHERE customer.city=S.F;
d. Show all the information for the SELECT * FROM Customer
members who are in 510 area code WHERE add_code=510;
e. Show the Product ID's and the amount SELECT Goods_ID, cust_account
for customer whose phone is: "555 1234" FROM Customer
WHERE phone=555 1234;
f. Show all the Products that Salesman Joe select * from goods where name='Joe Brown' and
Brown sold; his code is: JB code='JB'
g. Show the information for customers who SELECT * FROM Customer
have purchased more that $5000 (so far) WHERE purchase=5000;
h. Show the phone numbers of the best select phone_no from customer where
customers (define it as having Year to year_to_date>15000
Date of more than $15,000)

Part2
1. What are entities?
There are three entities of this data set.
