Q:

For some background, investigate Access, Microsoft’s database program, or any other database program.  Databases rely heavily on data types and have their own internal data structures.  Your goal for this investigation is to understand these data types.

 

You work for a small company that has kept employee information on paper.  Since the company has grown, they have asked you to computerize the employee database.  Ignoring the fact that Access or any other database program might be much more efficient than what you create, design an employee record.  A record is the technical term for all data pertaining to a particular object, in this case, an employee.

 

1.  Decide which fields you would use.  For each field, describe its type.  If you decide to use an array for an object, explain why and how you would manage the array.

 

2.  Of course, the initial part of this project is to create the data objects (structures.)  After creating them, discuss the operations that the company might want to perform on the database.  Limit yourself to four or five operations.  For each operation, write pseudocode to describe it.  Break into two-person teams to create the modules for the operations.  You should use one team per operation (module).  You can rearrange the team members to get the teams.

 

3.  Have different (from the creators) two-person teams desk check the pseudocode.
