revision

Hi all – just doing some revision with my students (as I’m sure we all are)
– I’d LOVE to find some practical exercises to work through to hone our
normalisation skills. Yep, I know there are the questions on the previous
years’ exams, however that’s only a few
.anybody know of some or can suggest
where I might look?

Thanks Chris

Hello Mark and others

One of the concerns I have about these normalisation discussions is that
there appear to be a lot of issues conflated into a single word
'normalisation', hence not leading to clear answers.

For example, when one says 'a clear and logical way to explain
normalisation' does one mean:

- explain what normalisation is

- explain why normalisation is needed

- explain how to recognise when a set of tables is (is not) normalised

- explain what the normal forms are

- explain how to arrive at each normal form

- explain why each normal form is defined the way it is (what it is trying
to prevent/achieve)

etc

Regards

Robert T-A

... slides which I'm still trying to get right.  :-o 

I keep trying to find a clear and logical way to explain normalisation, but
never quite get there.

Just be thankful we only need to get to 3NF, and not 5NF.

Arghh!

Hi all,

Would anyone have any tasks relating to normalisation that they are willing
to share, my kids need more practise.

Thanks
