[2] [2] (4] [6] SELECT employee_id, hire_date, MONTHS_BETWEEN (SYSDATE, hire_date) Months_hired, ADD_MONTHS (hire_date, 6) REVIEW, NEXT_DAY (hire_date, 'MONDAY'), LAST_DAY (hire_date) FROM Employees Where MONTHS BETWEEN (SYSDATE, hire_date) < 50; v) How would you select all the records from a table named 'Persons' where the value of the column "FirstName" starts with an "a" using SQL statement? [2] 10
12 QUESTION 5 a) Explain how the log file is a fundamental feature in any database recovery mechanism. [4] b) Identify THREE (3) DDL statements in SQL and the function of each statement c) Describe the terms below: [6] [4] i) Subquery ii) Column aliases QUESTION 6 Design an ER diagram for keeping track of information about votes taken in the U.S. House of Representatives during the two-year congressional session. The database needs to keep track of each U.S. state's Name (e.g. Texas, New York, California) and includes the region of the state (whose domain is {North East, Midwest, Southwest, West}). Each CONGRESSPERSON in the House of Representatives us described by their Name, and includes the District represented, the StartDate when they were first elected, and the political Party they belong to (whose domain is {Republican, Democrat, Independent, other}). The database keeps track of each BILL (i.e. proposed law), and includes the BiiiName, the DateONote on the bill, whether the bill PassedOrFailed (whose domain is {YES, NO}), and the sponsor (the congressperson(s) who sponsored - i.e., proposed -the bill). The database keeps track of how each congressperson voted on each bill (domain of vote attribute is {Yes, No, Abstain, Absent}). Draw an ER schema diagram for the above application. (State clearly any assumption you make.) [20] <<<<<<<<<< END >>>>>>> 11
