Potential to have more than one value for an attribute
Complex Attribute: A complex attribute is an attribute that is both composite and multivalued.
single value attribute is one that holds a single value for a single entity. example:- name, roll_number... multivalued attribute is one that holds multiplevalues for a single entities. example:- degree(phd, mca)
date of birth determines a person's age.
A Complex attribute that is both Composite and Multi valued. Composite and Multivalued attributes can be nested arbitrarily to form a Complex attribute like Address.
what two courses of action are available to a designer who encounters a multivalued attribute
Multivalued dependencies are also referred to as tuple generating dependencies. After the Boyce -Codd normal form the results may be devoid of any functional dependencies but it may encounter multivalued dependencies as the multivalued dependencies also cause redundancy of data. For eg: If there are 3 attributes involved in a relation,A,B, and C.. Then for every value of A we will have respective values for B and C.. But it is a necessary in the 4th normal form that both B and C values are independent of each other. This is represented by .,, A->>B A->>C.. MVD or Multivalued Dependency is a dependency where one attribute value is potentially a "multivalued fact" about another and the attributes must be independent of each other.
multivalued data
An arcsine is any of the single- or multivalued functions which are inverses of the sine function.
Classical Logic allows two truth values, True and False. Multivalued or "many-valued logic" allows other kinds of truth values and it allows there to be more than two truth values.
An arctangent is any of several single-valued or multivalued functions which are inverses of the tangent function.
An arccosine is any of several single-valued or multivalued functions which are inverses of the cosine function.
Put /* block comments */ around it, for example: style { attribute: value; attribute: value; attribute: value; } style { /* attribute: value; */ attribute: value; attribute: value; } or style { /* attribute: value; attribute: value; */ attribute: value; } or /* style { attribute: value; attribute: value; attribute: value; } */ And while this won't validate, attribute renaming uses a lot less typing (and I use it myself): style { xattribute: value; attribute: value; attribute: value; }
