You can think of a tile as a square on the board on which the game will be played. We will come back to this class later. For the moment you can leave it empty while you work on creating classes that represents characters in the game. • Write an abstract class Fighter which has the following private fields: - A Tile field named position, representing the fighter's position in the game.

A company database needs to store information about employees (identified by SIN, with salary and phone as attributes), departments (identified by DID, with dname and budget as attributes), and children of employees (with name and age as attributes). Employees work in departments; each department is managed by an employee; a child must be identified uniquely by name when the parent (who is an employee; assume that only one parent works for the company) is known. We are not interested in information about a child once the parent leaves the company. Draw an ER diagram using Crows Foot notation that captures this information. Important: Must submit both ER Diagram and Relational Schema images in your solution here.
Given the dependency diagram of attributes C1,C2,C3,C4,C5 in a table shown in the following figure, the primary key attributes are underlined.   Make a database with multiple tables from attributes as shown above that are in 3NF, showing PK, non-key attributes, and FK for each table? Assume the tables are already in 1NF. Hint: 3 tables will result after deducing 1NF -> 2NF -> 3NF]
