2005
2) what is composite key and candidate key
3) what is temporary table and derived table
4) how to calculate difference between two dates
Answer / murugavel
1) char datatype is used to store fixed length character
value & varchar is used to store variable length character
value.
2) Composite Key: combination of multiple fields will
produce the uniqeness is called composite key.
Candidate Key: A field has the ability to become a primary
key is known as candidate key.
3) Temporary Table: This table is only visible to this
session of SQL Server. When I close this session, the table
will be automatically dropped. You can treat this table just
like any other table with a few exceptions. The only real
major one is that you can't have foreign key constraints on
a temporary table.
Derived Table:In very basic terms, a derived table is a
virtual table that's calculated on the fly from a select
statement. The biggest benefit of using derived tables over
using temporary tables is that they require fewer steps, and
everything happens in memory instead of a combination of
memory and disk
4) using DATEDIFF function
Ex: SELECT DATEDIFF(dd,"01 March 2010","18 March 2010")
