Program Plan Intro

Functional dependency:

  • A column “X” is said to be functionally dependent on another column “Y”, when at any point of time, a value for “X” determines a single value for “Y”.
  • In other words, a column “X” is said to be functionally dependent on another column “Y”, when two tuples agree on attribute “X” values then they should also agree on attribute “Y” values.
  • It is usually represented as “XY”, where the terms “X” and “Y” are composite.
  • It can be said as either “Y” is functionally dependent on “X” or as “X” functionally determines “Y”.

Normalization:

  • Normalization refers to the method of representing a database in the terms of relations, which are in the standard normal forms.
  • It is organized in a table manner to reduce data redundancy and data dependency.

Third Normal Form (3NF):

A table or a relation is said to be in third normal form if and only if it is in second normal form and if the candidate keys are its only determinants.

I need help to resolve the case, thank you
In 32-bit MSAM, You were given the following negative array. write a program that converts each array element to its positive representation. Then add all these array elements and assign them to the dl register. .data    myarr sbyte -5, -6, -7, -4.code     ; Write the rest of the program and paste the fully working code in the space below.   the dl register should have the value 22 after summing up all elements in the array.
