dependencies - Need further insight on functional depencies -
i'm trying solve below question , need little more insight on functional depend-ices. have goggled , have understanding of it, need further apply understanding.
question:
- find functional dependencies (includes bijections, one-to-one correspondences, mappings) within tbl 01 ?
here line items tbl 01:
member zip = 2919 membercountycode= ot zipcountyclass= class1
sorry if format off, when tried paste table in column format lossed.
so far have came this:
{ member zip -> membercounty code membercountycode -> zipcountyclass }
i'm still bit stumped on bijections , rest of question.
any appreciated.
it hard example. when has use-case specified.
i can give example unf type record cart item this:
cart_item
- cart_id
- user_id
- user_name
- product_id
- product_name
- product_type
- quantity
- unit_price
the functional dependency like:
- product_name, product_type -> product_id
- user_name -> user_id
- quantity, unit_price, product_id, user_id -> cart_id
this defined record structure can divided 3 tables: products, users , cart_items. described each record (product, user, cart_items) representing 1 unique record each , prevent duplication/redudancy.
in case, seems both dependency false. why it:
- one country code can has many zip code
- one country class can has many country code or zip code
