    Normalising

    i said a foreign keycan be repeated but it does not neccessarily have to be. it depends on the database. the only restriction is on the primary key that must be unique as its function is to identify a specific record. consider the rta database. the drivers license number in a "Driver Table"...

    ERDs

    ERDs (Entity Relationship Diagrams) are just schemas. No difference at least in the IPT course

    Relational Database Disadvantages?

    relational databases are not suited in implementing spatial (3d design, CAD)databases or handling image data. cannot deal with data that have complex interrelationships and difficulties may exist in processing data from within certain programming environments. thats all i could think of/find.

    Normalising

    that looks good. in the LOANS Table Item Number and Student Number are referred to as foreign keys. While primary keys are unique, foreign keys can be repeated within a table. for example if a student has 4 loans then that students id will appear four times in the LOANS Table

    Quick Question

    pilot conversion. you could trial the new system in one of the offices over a period of time. depending on the result of the evaluation you could then deploy it in the remaining offices. it should be noted that you could argue a case for direct, parallel or phased.

    IPT Study Thread

    analog sound can be represented as a wave (think sine wav). the different pitch and volume in the analog sound is represented by the wave's frequency and amplitude. the wave is sampled (readings of amplitude and frequency) and converted into a digital format such as wav, mp3, wma or...

    Counting/ Permuations

    case 1: 3 different letters = 7 x 6 x 5 =210 (using letterbox technique) case 2: 2 E's = 6 x 3 (as the there are 6 choices for the third letter and it can be in one of three places) tf total = 228

    stupid permutations

    Assuming you can only use each digit once: (i) 5! (ii) arrangements where they are together=6! x 2 arrangements where they are seperated by 1 digit=5 x 2 x 5! arrangements where they are seperated by 2 digits =4 x 2 x 5! tf total arrangements = 3600 (i) arrangements where e...

    Binomials

    the answer in the back of fitzpatrick is wrong. had a look at the official solutions and the one i posted earlier is correct =)

    Binomials

    assumption: probability that any particular word needs correcting is 1/800. tf p(more than one correction per page)=1-(p(0 corrections)+p(1 correction)) =1-(200C0 (799/800)^200 + 200C1 (1/800)(799/800)^199) = 0.026 which is not the answer...

    Binomial Probability

    it's from the cambridge yr 12 3 unit book, pg 448. i have been at the question for two days but can't get it out. i'd like to think that the answers in the back are wrong but i am always nervous doing this because the answers are usually correct.

    Binomial Probability

    At least its from a text book exerecise on binomial probability but i am not convinced of this. During winter it rains on average 18 out of 30 days. Five winter days are selected at random. Find the probability that: a) the first two days chosen will be fine and the remainder wet. b) more...

    solve 2x+1 = 3sin(x/2)

    how about rewriting 2x+1 = 3sin(x/2) as 3sin(x/2)-2x-1=0 and using the halving the interval method to approximate the answer. still only an approximate answer but after many iterations could be reasonably accurate.
