Chapter 8, Problem 20RQ

Explanation of Solution

Sequence:

  • A sequence is user defined schema that generates the numeric values.
  • The generation of unique numeric values by a special type of object either in ascending or descending order is called sequence.
  • It is frequently used in databases as many applications require unique value in a row.
  • Its functionality is same as the Autonumber data type in MS access.
  • For example, both the sequence and Autonumber data type generate ascending or descending values.

There are some slight difference which occurs between sequence and the Autonumber data type. Some of the differences are listed below:

  • In MS Access, Autonumber is just a data type, whereas in oracle, sequence is completely an independent object...

I want to ask someone who has experiences in writing physics based simulation software. For context I am building a game engine, and want to implement physics simulation. There are a few approaches that I managed to find, but would like to know what are other approaches to doing physics simulation entry points from scenes, would you be able to visually draw me a few approaches (like 3 approaces)?When I say entry point to the actual physics simulation. An example of this is when the user presses the play button in the editor, it starts and initiates the physics system. Applying all of the global physics settings parameters that gets applied to that scene.Here is the use-case, I am looking for. If you have two scenes, and select scene 1. You press the play button. The physics simulation starts. When that physics simulation starts, you are also having to update the physics through some physics dedicated delta time because physics needs to happen faster update frequency.To elaborate, what…
