1 The best aspects that play important role in representing information are the following namely: 1.

Data definition language: a Data Definition Language or Data Description Language (DDL) is a computer language for defining data structures. The term DDL was first introduced in relation to the Codasyl database model, where the schema of the database was written in a Data Description Language describing the records, fields, and "sets" making up the user Data Model. Later it was used to refer to a subset of SQL, but is now used in a generic sense to refer to any formal language for describing data or information structures, like XML schemas. It is used to describe external and logical schemas From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search "CREATE" redirects here.

1. A language enabling the structure and instances of a database to be defined in a human-, and . machine-readable form. www.ecrion.com 2.The data manuplation language: It is used to access and apdate data; it is not important for representing the data (of course,the data manuplation language must be aware of how data is represented,and reflect this in the coustructs that it supports).

Data Manipulation Language

(June 2009) Data Manipulation Language (DML) is a family of computer languages used by computer programs and/or database users to insert, delete and update data in a database. Read-only querying, i.e. SELECT, of this data may be considered to be either part of DML or outside it, depending on the context. Currently the most popular data manipulation language is that of SQL, which is used to retrieve and manipulate data in a Relational database.[1] Other forms of DML are those used by IMS/DLI, CODASYL databases (such as IDMS), and others. Data Manipulation Language comprises the 'SQL-data change' statements[2], which modify stored data but not the schema or database objects. Manipulation of persistent database objects (e.g. tables or stored procedures) via the 'SQL-schema' statements[2], rather than the data stored within them, is considered to be part of a separate Data Definition Language. In SQL these two categories are similar in their detailed syntax, data types, expressions etc., but distinct in their overall function.[2]

3 Data Manipulation Languages have their functional capability organized by the initial word in a statement, which is almost always a verb. In the case of SQL, these verbs are:

2. The data model: Is fundamental to representing information mechanisms are suppotted by the DBMS.The data definition language is just the specific set of language coustructs available to describe an actual application;s data in terms of the data model .
