Entity:
Entity refers to the basic building block of data collected regarding a person, place, event, or thing.
- Entity can be defined as an object in the system that has to be modelled and about which information has to be stored.
- The property of entity refers to attribute and the association between entities refers to a relationship.
- Rectangles with either round or square corners are used to represent an entity.
- Entity is described by a singular noun spelled in capital letters.
- Some common examples of entities are Employee, Student, Lecturer, etc.
Example of entity:
The example of an entity is given below:
- Student – the student is the name of the person, who collects the details of the student information. Therefore, here the STUDENT acts as an entity.
- Lecturer - the lecturer is the person name, who collects the details of lecturer information. Therefore, here the Lecturer acts as an entity.

Dijkstra's Algorithm (part 1). Consider the network shown below, and Dijkstra’s link-state algorithm. Here, we are interested in computing the least cost path from node E (note: the start node here is E) to all other nodes using Dijkstra's algorithm. Using the algorithm statement used in the textbook and its visual representation, complete the "Step 0" row in the table below showing the link state algorithm’s execution by matching the table entries (i), (ii), (iii), and (iv) with their values. Write down your final [correct] answer, as you‘ll need it for the next question.
