Normalization:

The process used to minimize data redundancy and dependency in a relational database is known as normalization. The database table is divided into two or more tables and defines the relationship between those tables.

Third normal form (3NF):

  • The value of any non-primary key attributes will not depend on any other non-primary key attributes.
    • If any non-primary key attributes depend on any other non-primary key attribute then it should be moved or deleted.
    • It is termed as transitive dependency.

Partial dependency:

A partial dependency exists at that time of an attributes depends only a part of primary key. This dependency is related with 1st normal form.

Transitive dependency:

A transitive dependency exists at that time of an attributes depends on another attribute which is not part of primary key.

Functional dependency:

An association between two attributes or two set of attributes in a same relational database table, which is having some constraints is known as functional dependency.

  • In a table one attribute is functionally dependent on another attribute to take one value.

Consider the problem of finding a path in the grid shown below from the position S to theposition G. The agent can move on the grid horizontally and vertically, one square at atime (each step has a cost of one). No step may be made into a forbidden crossed area. Inthe case of ties, break it using up, left, right, and down.(a) Draw the search tree in a greedy search. Manhattan distance should be used as theheuristic function. That is, h(n) for any node n is the Manhattan distance from nto G. The Manhattan distance between two points is the distance in the x-directionplus the distance in the y-direction. It corresponds to the distance traveled along citystreets arranged in a grid. For example, the Manhattan distance between G and S is4. What is the path that is found by the greedy search?(b) Draw the search tree in an A∗search. Manhattan distance should be used as the

Consider the follow program that prints a page number on the left or right side of a page. Define and use a new function, isEven, that returns a Boolean to make the condition in the if statement easier to understand. ef main() :   page = int(input("Enter page number: "))   if page % 2 == 0 :      print(page)   else :      print("%60d" % page)   main()
