6. (i) What do you understand by constraint? Name any one constraint. (1)

Ans SQL constraints are used to specify rules for the data in a table. Constraints
are used to limit the type of data that can go into a table.

Any one example out of the following

 ● NOT NULL
● UNIQUE
● PRIMARY KEY

(ii) Give one point of difference between Primary key and Foreign key. (1)

Ans Primary Key: An attribute/group of attributes in a table that identifies a

tuple uniquely is known as a Key.

Foreign Key: A Foreign Key is a column or a combination of columns whose

values match a Primary Key of a different table. The relationship between
two tables matches the Primary Key in one of the tables with a Foreign Key
in another table.

8. Ram has stored the details about the book collection he has along with its
genre in a dictionary object. Write a program to
● Store the names of the books whose genre is either “Fiction”,
“Thriller”, or “Horror” in a stack using the Push function.
● Pop and display the names of the books stored in the stack using the
POP function.
For example:
If the sample content of the dictionary is as follows:
Book={"THE HELP":"FICTION", "WATCHMAN":"COMIC", "CARRIE":
"HORROR","CIRCLE":"FANTASY","BIRD BOX":"HORROR"}

PAGE #3/8
 The output from the program should be:
BIRD BOX CARRIE THE HELP

Ans def PUSH(Stack,Name):

Stack.append(Name)

def POP(Stack):
if Stack!=[]:
NM=Stack.pop()
else:
NM=None
return NM

Book={"THE HELP":"FICTION", "WATCHMAN":"COMIC", "CARRIE":

"HORROR","CIRCLE":"FANTASY","BIRD BOX":"HORROR"}
ST=[]
for nm in Book:
if Book[nm] in ["FICTION", "THRILLER", "HORROR"]:
PUSH(ST,nm)

while True:
N=POP(ST)
if N != None:
print(N, end=" ")
else:
break

OR

Ram has a list containing 10 numbers. You need to help him create a program
with separate user defined functions to perform the following operations based
on this list.
● Traverse the content of the list and push the numbers between 10 and 20
(including both) into a stack.
● Pop and display the content of the stack
For Example:
If the sample Content of the list is as follows:
N=[10,12.67,7.7,9.99,34,10.6,16.45,20.12,19.99,54]

Sample Output of the code should be:

19.99 16.45 10.6 12.67 10

Ans def PUSH(Stack,Num):

Stack.append(Num)

def POP(Stack):
if Stack!=[]:
NM=Stack.pop()
else:
NM=None
return NM

N=[10,12.67,7.7,9.99,34,10.6,16.45,20.12,19.99,54]
ST=[]

PAGE #4/8
 for n in N:
if n>=10 and n<=20:
PUSH(ST,n)

while True:
N=POP(ST)
if N != None:
print(N, end=" ")
else:
break

9. (i) A table, PRODUCT has been created in a database with the following (1)
fields:
ID, PROD, QTY, PRICE, DOM

Give the SQL command to add Primary key constraint to the ID

Column of the PRODUCT table.

Ans ALTER TABLE PRODUCT

ADD PRIMARY KEY (ID);

(ii) What is the difference between DELETE and DROP TABLE commands of SQL? (2)
Also, specify their categories out of DDL and DML for these commands.

Ans DELETE - It is a DML command used to delete ROW(s) from a table. Even
after deletion of all the rows, the structure of the table remains.

DROP TABLE - It is a DDL command used to delete the table. It deletes rows
as well as columns of the table.

10 Reema has to create a table named PLANTS to store the records of the
plants in her nursery within the NURSERY database. Write the SQL command
to create the PLANTS table which has the following structure:

Table: PLANTS
FIELD NAME DATA TYPE REMARKS
PID CHAR(4) Primary Key
PLANTNAME CHAR(35)
PRICE FLOAT
QTY INTEGER
TYPE VARCHAR(20)

Ans CREATE TABLE PLANTS (

PID CHAR(4) PRIMARY KEY,
PLANTNAME CHAR(35),
PRICE FLOAT,
QTY INT,
TYPE VARCHAR(20));

OR
Define the following terms:
XML , web Server
Ans XML (eXtensible Markup Language): XML is a programming language that
enables designers to create their own tags to indicate specific information.
XML is one of the most widely-used formats for sharing structured
information today.

Web server: It is a computer that stores Web documents and makes them

PAGE #6/8
 available to the rest of the world. A server may be dedicated, meaning its
sole purpose is to be a Web server, or non-dedicated, meaning it can be used
for basic computing in addition to acting as a server.
(ii) What is the difference between IP address and Domain Name? (2)
Ans IP Address: An Internet Protocol address (IP address) is a numerical label
such as 192.0.2.1 that is connected to a computer network that uses the
Internet Protocol for communication.

Domain Name: It is the unique name that identifies an Internet site. Domain
Names always have 2 or more parts, separated by dots (or periods). The part
on the left is the most specific, and the part on the right is the most
general. A given machine may have more than one Domain Name but a given
Domain Name points to only one machine. Example: w3schools.com,
microsoft.co.in, cbse.nic.in
