CHAPTER 1: DATABASES AND DATABASE USERS

1. Given the simple Doctor-Treats_Patient database schema which contains three files describing information about doctors and patients they treat as follows, answer the following questions with regards to this database. (Total for que 1 is 10 marks)

Doctor (DocID: string, DName: string, DAddress: string, Numpatients: integer)

Treats (DocId: string, SSN: string, illness: string, day: string, cost: real)

Patient (SSN: string, PatientName: string, PAddress: string, Age:integer)

Note : DocID, DName, DAddress and Numpatients stand for the doctors identifier, name, address and the total number of patients the doctor has, respectively. Also, SSN, PatientName, PAddress and Age stand for the the patients social security number, name, address and age respectively. The rest of the attributes are for the illness (eg. Cold, flu, diabetes, headache) and cost of each treatment visit (eg. $85) not including cost of buying prescription. Note that a doctor can treat a patient for several illnesses.

1. Create a valid instance of this database containing values for its records with at least four records in each file. (3 marks)
2. Provide 2 informal English queries for this database with their answers. Each query should use at least 2 of the files in the database and your answer should indicate the files (e.g., Doctor, Treats) needed to answer each query and specify what fields are being retrieved as the result (e.g., illness, cost). Please, provide your solution in the 3 column table below. (4 marks)
3. Specify at least 3 relationships (one for each of the 3 database files) among the records of the database. For each file (e.g., Doctor), list any relationships this file (eg. Doctor) has with the other files through its fields (e.g., DocID). (3 marks) Provide your solutions using the table below.
