Learning DDL in Oracle

About DDL or Data Definition Language is a language used to define the data definition. Consists of commands to create, modify or delete the table and its columns and its constituent data types, as well as the commands to define the relationship and limits the data.

the types of DDL in the oracle, namely:

A. CREATE TABLE

Used to create tables. Syntax is generally as follows:

CREATE TABLE [schema], table (column datatype [DEFAULT expr] [, ...]);

Example of a table is:

create table MHS (

nim varchar2 (7),

name varchar2 (15),

CPI number (3.2),

jml_e number (2)

);

Then to see the existing tables, can write

Select * from tab;

Then to see the description of the table, can write

Desc MHS;

2. ALTER TABLE
ALTER TABLE statement is used to:
-> Adding a new column
To add a new column, the following general syntax:

ALTER TABLE table ADD (column datatype [DEFAULT expr] [, column datatype] …);

alter table item add / modify the brand varchar (50);

add to add a field, while the Modify to edit the field;

alter table rename column name> table> name> field>;

to change the name of the field

MHS alter table add the address varchar (20);

-> Delete column
DROP COLUMN clause is used to remove the columns that are not needed anymore in the table. For example, to delete the address in the table above MHS.

MHS alter table drop column address;

-> Modify an existing column
We can modify the column by changing the data type, size and default values.
The syntax of the ALTER TABLE command to modify the columns as follows:

Modify the ALTER TABLE table (column datatype [DEFAULT expr] [, column datatype] …);

Example:

Modify the ALTER TABLE student (jml_e number (5));

Table altered.

3. DROP TABLE
Used to eliminate the table. Perform the deletion table with the DROP command, then do the following:
-> All the data and the structure of the table is deleted
-> All pending transactions will be commit
-> All indexes will be removed
-> The command can not drop this on-rollback
For example, if you want to remove MHS table, then that should be addressed:

DROP TABLE MHS;

4. RENAME
Used to merubaha name of an object (table, view, sequence or synonim). For example, if we want to change the student table, then the command to do are:

RENAME TO MHS students;

5 Command DDL (Data Definition Language)

Post an this is my project work on the SQL DML command … may be useful for readers wrote … :)

Overview of the SQL …

SQL stands for Structured Query Language. SQL is a standard computer language for accessing and manipulating databases. The entire database applications on the market, both free and is licensed, adopt the SQL language for database processing. There are two types of command in SQL, the DDL and DML.

DDL (Data Definition Language) is a SQL command associated with the definition of a database and tables.Some basic commands are included in the DDL, among others.

A. CREATE

Function: CREATE Command is working to create a database or create a table inside the database.

Syntax: CREATE database_name database;

Parameters: -

Example: CREATE pharmacy database;

Explanation: CREATE command above will create a database with the name of the pharmacy.

2. SHOW

Function: This function SHOW Command to display the database or table that we created earlier.

Syntax: SHOW databases;

Parameters: -

Example: SHOW databases;

Explanation: The SHOW command above will show all the existing database.

3. USE

Function: USE Command is working to open / activate / enter the database we have created. Once we enter into the database we have created, then we can manipulate existing data, including to create a table in the database.

Syntax: USE database_name;

Parameters: -

Example: USE pharmacies;

Explanation: The command above will enable the database with the name of the pharmacy so that we can manipulate the data.

4. ALTER

Function: ALTER Command is working to change the structure of a table. Change here is not simply renew the existing table structure, but also changed the name of the field, adding a primary key, change the field type, or delete fields that have been made previously.

Syntax: ALTER TABLE table_name parameter_option;

Parameters: add, modify, drop

Example: ALTER TABLE ADD medication price int (6);

Explanation: The command above will add a field into the price of the drug table.

5. DROP

Function: DROP Command is working to remove, either database, table, or field that has been entered into the table.

Syntax: DROP TABLE table_name;

Parameters: -

Example: DROP TABLE supplier;

Explanation: The command above will remove the table supplier in the pharmacy database.

Glance About Sybase Power Designer 11

Sybase Power Designer 11 is a modeling tool released by Sybase for
build an information system that is fast, structured and effective. Sybase Power Designer 11
supports multiple modeling as follows:
• Requirements Management
• Business Process
• Data Modelling
• XML Modelling
• Application Modeling with UML
• Information Liquidity Modeling
• Integrated Modelling
In this tutorial we will try to use Power Designer to do the modeling
data (data modeling) for then we will use to perform database design.
Simply put, to perform data modeling in Power Designer, we have to begin at
level Conceptual Data Model, where the data modeling is done using the method Entity
Relationship Diagram. In the CDM, data type that is used is general and not specific
against a particular database.
The second stage is to create a Physical Data Model (PDM) PDM is a specific form of
CDM that we have built. Power Designer has a lot of support for the target database, sowe
not to be confused about the type - the type of data used, because the Power Designer will
adjust as the data type that we defined earlier in the stage of the CDM.
The last stage is the script generates Data Definition Language (DDL) of the PDM that has been
is made. Through this we can generate the DDL objects - database objects (tables, triggers, views,
procedure) then DDL scripts so that we can execute the software of other databases such as Oracle
or MySQL, or we can also create a connection and execute it directly via the PowerDesigner.

 

What is DDL & DML?

All SQL commands are divided into two broad categories according to its function,namely:
DDL - Data Definition Language
is a collection of SQL commands used to create, modify and delete metadata structuresand definitions of database objects.DML - Data Manipulation Language
is a collection of SQL commands that are used for processing the contents of the data inthe table such as insert, modify and delete the contents of the data - and not associatedwith changes in the structure and data type definitions of database objects.Let us see from the definition and more examples in the following sections below.
DDL - Data Definition LanguageAs the definition described above, DDL is a set of SQL commands that are used to make(create), modify (alter) and delete (drop) the structure and data type definitions ofdatabase objects.

Objects in the database in question - in MySQL - is as follows:
database
table
View
index
Procedure (Stored Procedure)
function
trigger

Understanding The Specifications Puzzle

Define the specifications for the design and development of systems and software is a bit like the classic Gershwin song and what I personally consider the biggest cause of confusion in the field of information technology as long as I remember, this is more than 30 years in the industry. Some people say specifications should be based on the inherent properties of information, others believe it is based on a screen / report or file layout, still others think it should be categorically based on the process specifications and data. Interestingly, all are absolutely correct. The difference lies in the perspective of the person and the job. For example, how we define the specifications for the design of a car is certainly different from the way we specify a skyscraper. The same is true in the IT area where we have different things to be produced by different people, for example:1. The programmer (aka, Software Engineer) requires precise specifications in order to develop a program code (source and object). It normally takes the form of processing requirements (eg, hardware, types of transactions to be processed, the volume, timing, messages, etc.) and the need for physical data (input / output / file layouts).

2. DBA (Data Base Administrator) requires precise specifications to select a management technique appropriate file (eg DBMS) and produce the necessary data definition language (DDL) for that. It normally takes the form of a model database representing the logical relationships between data entities.

3. The analyst (aka, Systems Analyst, Systems Engineer, Systems Architect, Business Analyst) – requires specification of the information requirements of the end user to design a system solution. This is normally based on a definition of commercial activities of the user and / or decisions that must be supported. After the system design, the analyst product specifications required by the programmer and DBA to fulfill their part of the puzzle. In this perspective, the analyst is the translator between the user and programmer and DBA.

Each party has its own unique perspective to the puzzle, and as such, requires different “specifications”. To compound the problem, however, the role of the analyst greatly diminished over the years, leaving programmers to try to determine what the needs of end users, a skill they are generally not trained or suited for. To illustrate, I recall the history of the IT Director in a shoe manufacturing company that has received a call from corporate sales manager for help on a pressing problem. The Director has sent more than one of its programmers to meet the sales manager and discuss the problem. Basically, the manager wanted a sense of all footwear sales sorted by model, volume, type, color, etc. The programmer immediately knew how to access the necessary data and sorted accordingly, producing a large print (three feet high) he dutifully delivered to the user.
