  2. Check constraint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Check_constraint

    A check constraint is a type of integrity constraint in SQL which specifies a requirement that must be met by each row in a database table. The constraint must be a predicate . It can refer to a single column, or multiple columns of the table.

  3. Referential integrity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Referential_integrity

    For referential integrity to hold in a relational database, any column in a base table that is declared a foreign key can only contain either null values or values from a parent table's primary key or a candidate key. [2] In other words, when a foreign key value is used it must reference a valid, existing primary key in the parent table.

  4. pandas (software) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pandas_(software)

    However, if data is a DataFrame, then data['a'] returns all values in the column(s) named a. To avoid this ambiguity, Pandas supports the syntax data.loc['a'] as an alternative way to filter using the index. Pandas also supports the syntax data.iloc[n], which always takes an integer n and returns the nth value, counting from 0. This allows a ...

  5. Delete (SQL) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delete_(SQL)

    Transaction log - DELETE needs to read records, check constraints, update block, update indexes, and generate redo / undo. All of this takes time, hence it takes time much longer than with TRUNCATE; reduces performance during execution - each record in the table is locked for deletion; DELETE uses more transaction space than the TRUNCATE statement

  6. Constraint satisfaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constraint_satisfaction

    In artificial intelligence and operations research, constraint satisfaction is the process of finding a solution through a set of constraints that impose conditions that the variables must satisfy. [1] A solution is therefore an assignment of values to the variables that satisfies all constraints—that is, a point in the feasible region.

  7. Update (SQL) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Update_(SQL)

    An SQL UPDATE statement changes the data of one or more records in a table. Either all the rows can be updated, or a subset may be chosen using a condition. The UPDATE statement has the following form: [1] UPDATE table_name SET column_name = value [, column_name = value ...] [WHERE condition]

  8. Where (SQL) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Where_(SQL)

    A WHERE clause in SQL specifies that a SQL Data Manipulation Language (DML) statement should only affect rows that meet specified criteria. The criteria are expressed in the form of predicates. WHERE clauses are not mandatory clauses of SQL DML statements, but can be used to limit the number of rows affected by a SQL DML statement or returned ...

  9. Constraint programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constraint_programming

    From this constraint, the solver infers that M=1. All stored constraints involving variable M are awakened: in this case, constraint propagation on the all_different constraint removes value 1 from the domain of all the remaining variables. Constraint propagation may solve the problem by reducing all domains to a single value, it may prove that ...
