relational database          (RDBMS - relational database management system) A       {database} based on the {relational model} developed by       {E.F. Codd}.   A relational database allows the definition of       data structures, storage and retrieval operations and       {integrity constraints}.   In such a database the data and       relations between them are organised in {tables}.   A table is       a collection of rows or {records} and each row in a table       contains the same {fields}.   Certain fields may be designated       as {keys}, which means that searches for specific values of       that field will use indexing to speed them up.          Where fields in two different tables take values from the same       set, a {join} operation can be performed to select related       records in the two tables by matching values in those fields.       Often, but not always, the fields will have the same name in       both tables.   For example, an "orders" table might contain       (customer_id, product_code) pairs and a "products" table might       contain (product_code, price) pairs so to calculate a given       customer's bill you would sum the prices of all products       ordered by that customer by joining on the product-code fields       of the two tables.   This can be extended to joining multiple       tables on multiple fields.   Because these relationships are       only specified at retreival time, relational databases are       classed as {dynamic database management system}.          The first commercial RDBMS was the {Multics Relational Data       Store}, first sold in 1978.          {INGRES}, {Oracle}, {Sybase, Inc.}, {Microsoft Access}, and       {Microsoft SQL Server} are well-known database products and       companies.   Others include {PostgreSQL}, {SQL/DS}, and {RDB}.          ["Managing Data Bases, Four Critical Factors" Michael       M.

relational language          Relational languages specify output in terms of       some property and some arguments.   For example, if Tom has two       brothers, Dick and Harry, a relational language will respond       to the query "Who is Tom's brother?" with either Dick or       Harry.   Notice that unlike {functional language}s, relational       languages do not require a unique output for each       {predicate}/argument pair.   {Prolog} is the best known       relational language.          (1995-03-31)
