My biggest takeaways from this course are:
1. Use of SQL Workbench: This is a core skill, which I had a rough idea about, but never had the opportunity to get hands on experience on it.

At the company I interned with this past summer, I helped create several use cases for their previous projects. These documents are similar to case studies which we read at school.

Q2. With regard to evaluating the outcome of overhauling clinical-care management at IHC, the process might be seen as successful because it was efficient and also provided good clinical outcomes. However, when you analyze the data from financial statements, you can see that there has been a steady operating income and reveals a different and not…[Read more]

Kartik Rao commented on the post, Week 7 weekly question, on the site 9 years, 10 months ago
I was tasked with bringing in a particular number of clients as part of business development and a specific number of employees as an HR recruiting practice. The number was set and my targets were clear, which makes it very specific and measurable. However, the number given to me was not a very realistic one, which means it was not exactly achievable!

A very basic but key difference between the ERD and Relationship schema is that an ERD must necessarily identify unique entities by underlining the entity name. In the relationship schema, this need not be the case – the unique entity might or might not be differentiated(in some cases, we see that they might be written in bold or italics)

One of the key attributes of an ERD is the relationship between entities, especially the role of the key attribute and the foreign key. The creation of tables and their relationships was seen by me as the most important part of creating such models.

When I first saw the picture above of “The Conversation Prism”, I immediately thought of the Compact-Disk and it’s era. I was reminded of the days when I would request my parents to buy me a CD of my favorite […]
