We are using the 3rd edition of this book as reference to our project in our database systems, and all I can say is that this book has very excellent examples. For instance the normalization topics in this book is one of the best written explanation about normalization that I have found… I use the 4th edition powerpoint slides as reference, and it helps a lot because I only borrow book from the library. (I don’t want to invest in this book because I rather spend my money for PHP and MySQL books)
Argh.. talking about our project in Database I’ll be doing a lot of ER diagrams and relational diagrams in Visio 2003… :( waah.. another sleepless night for me, not to mention we have quiz tomorrow about implementation of rules and views in MS SQL 2000. Geezzz…. let’s burn the midnight oil once again… x_x
I want to thanks Sarah for giving me a sample database thesis. She used is to be my senior in college and now she has a job somewhere in RCBC Plaza as a COBOL programmer. The thesis she gave me was actually monitored and checked by our professor so I already have a preview of her of standards, taste or preference in documentations. :)
