Chapter 19, Problem 10PE

Explanation of Solution

Dealing with the difficulty:

Recovery schemes are normally used for detecting failures and restoring the database to a consistent state.

It is more difficult to recover from interactive transactions than batch transactions because of the following reasons:

  • Some actions in interactive transactions cannot be recovered.
  • For example, consider a write statement used by an ATM machine to dispense money to a customer.
    • One way to deal with such statements are by writing all the statements at the end of the transaction.
    • Hence, no harm will be done even if the transaction aborts anywhere from the beginning to the end...

Need help answering these questions!1. Design a While loop that lets the user enter a number. The number should be multiplied by 10, and the result stored in a variable named product. The loop should iterate as long as the product contains a value less than 100.   2. Design a For loop that displays the following set of numbers: 0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 . . . 1000   3. Convert the While loop in the following code to a Do-While loop:     Declare Integer x = 1     While x > 0        Display "Enter a number."        Input x     End While
