In 493 AD, Victorius of Aquitaine wrote a 98-column multiplication table which gave (in Roman numerals) the product of every number from 2 to 50 times and the rows were "a list of numbers starting with one thousand, descending by hundreds to one hundred, then descending by tens to ten, then by ones to one, and then the fractions down to 1/144 ...
In the phone book example with a composite index created on the columns (city, last_name, first_name), if we search by giving exact values for all the three fields, search time is minimal—but if we provide the values for city and first_name only, the search uses only the city field to retrieve all matched records.
The standard column family is a NoSQL object that contains columns of related data. It is a tuple (pair) that consists of a key–value pair, where the key is mapped to a value that is a set of columns. In analogy with relational databases, a standard column family is as a "table", each key–value pair being a "row". [1]
This is an injective relation: each combination of the values of the headers row (row 0, for lack of a better term) and the headers column (column 0 for lack of a better term) is related to a unique cell in the table: Column 1 and row 1 will only correspond to cell (1,1); Column 1 and row 2 will only correspond to cell (2,1) etc.
If just 2 columns are being swapped within 1 table, then cut/paste editing (of those column entries) is typically faster than column-prefixing, sorting and de-prefixing. Another alternative is to copy the entire table from the displayed page, paste the text into a spreadsheet, move the columns as you will.
A keyspace example with a number of column families. A keyspace (or key space) in a NoSQL data store is an object that holds together all column families of a design. [1] [2] It is the outermost grouping of the data in the data store. [3] It resembles the schema concept in Relational database management systems. [4]
Column width is traditionally called measure by typesetters. For best legibility, typographic manuals suggest that columns should be wide enough to contain roughly 60 characters per line. [3] One formula suggests multiplying the point size of the font by 2 to reach how wide a column should be in picas [4] — in effect a column width of 24 ems.
Here, width specifies the width of the columns, and determines dynamically the number of columns based on screen width; more columns will be shown on wider displays. If |colwidth= is not specified, the default width of 30em will be used. This template uses CSS3 multiple-column layout, which is not supported by all web browsers.
