CODERULES

Rule 0: For any system to be called a RDBMS, it must be able to manage database entirely through Its relation capabilities. Rule 1: All information in an rdbms is represented explicitly (at the logical level) in exactly one way, By values in table. Rule 2: Each and every datum (atomic value) is logically accessible through a combination of table name, column name and primary key value. Rule 3: Inapplicable or missing Information can be represented through null values. Rule 4: This rule states that table, view and authorization access definitions should be held in exactly one manner, i.e. As tables and views. These Tables should be accessible like other tables. Rule 5: There must be at least one language, which is comprehensive in supporting data definition, view deffinition, data manipulation, integrity constraints, authorization, and transaction control. Rule 6: All views that are theoretically updateable are updateable by the system. Rule 7: The capability of handling a base or a derived table as single operand applies not only to The retrieval of data but also to the insertion, deletion of data. All select, update, delete must be available and operate on sets of rows in any relation. Rule 8: Application programs and terminal activity remain logically unimpaired whenever any changes are made in the storage representation or Access method. Rule 9: When information preserving changes of any kind that theoretically permit unimpairment are made to the base tables. Rule 10: All integrity constraints must be definable in the data sub language and storable in the catalogue, not in the application program. Rule 11: The system must have data sub-language, which can support distributed databases without impairing application programs terminal activities. Rule 12: If the system has a low-level language, this language cannot be used bypass the integrity rules and constraints expressed in the higher-level relational language.
