Complex Attribute: A complex attribute is an attribute that is both composite and multivalued.
Potential to have more than one value for an attribute
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)
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.
A composite attribute consists of a group of values from more than one domain. For example, the Address attribute consists of several domains such as house number, street number, city, country, etc.
multivalued data
There are a few examples of economic attribute. One main example is water resources.
An attribute is a characteristic or feature of an object or entity. It helps to describe or define the object by providing specific information about it. Examples of attributes include color, size, shape, and weight.
It is an attribute that does not occur in some candidate key.
An arcsine is any of the single- or multivalued functions which are inverses of the sine function.
