Relational algebra SHIRAJ MOHAMED M | MIS 1
2
Relational algebra Notation SHIRAJ MOHAMED M | MIS 2
3
Unary Operations Selection course = ‘Computing’ Students In SQL: Select * From Students Where course = ‘Computing’; Projection stud#, name Students In SQL: Select stud#, name From Students; Selection & Projection stud#, name ( course = ‘Computing’ Students) In SQL: Select stud#, name From students Where course = ‘Computing’; 3 SHIRAJ MOHAMED M | MIS
4
Binary Operations/Joins Cartesian Product: Students X Courses In SQL: Select * From Students, Courses; 4 SHIRAJ MOHAMED M | MIS
5
Rename RENAME operator ( ): Renames the input relation and attributes with a new relation name & attributes specified. S(B1, B2, …, BN) (R) Example, TEMP NAME, MAJOR (STUDENT) STUD_INFO (FULL_NAME,M_DEPT ) TEMP SHIRAJ MOHAMED M | MIS 5
6
Renaming TEMP DNO=5 (EMPLOYEE) R(FIRSTNAME, LASTNAME, SALARY) FNAME, LNAME, SALARY (TEMP) Example SHIRAJ MOHAMED M | MIS 6
7
Union and Set-Difference All of these operations take two input relations, which must be union-compatible: Same number of fields. Corresponding’ fields have the same type. 7 SHIRAJ MOHAMED M | MIS
8
Set Operators Given two relations R1, R2 that are union-compatible, we have that ∆R1 R2 returns the set of tuples that are in R1 or R2. [UNION] ∆R1 R2 returns the set of tuples that are both in R1 and R2. [INTERSECTION] ∆R1 - R2 returns the set of tuples that are in R1, but not in R2. [SET DIFFERENCE] 8 SHIRAJ MOHAMED M | MIS
9
Set Operators Name (FACULY) Name (STUDENT) Address (FACULY) Address (STUDENT) CrsCode (CLASS) - CrsCode (TRANSCRIPT) 9 SHIRAJ MOHAMED M | MIS
10
Union S1 S2 10 SHIRAJ MOHAMED M | MIS
11
Set Difference S1 S2 S2 – S1 11 SHIRAJ MOHAMED M | MIS
12
Joins Three new join operators are introduced: Left Outer Join (denoted as ) Right Outer Join (denoted as ) Full Outer Join (denoted as ) SHIRAJ MOHAMED M | MIS 12
13
Join… SHIRAJ MOHAMED M | MIS 13 Students ⋈ Courses In SQL: Select * From Students, Courses Where stud# = 200;
14
Left Outer Join Left Outer Join : A B ensures that all tuples in the in the relation A are present in the result set. The tuples in A without matching tuples in B are filled with null values for B’s attributes SHIRAJ MOHAMED M | MIS 14
15
Left Outer Join - Example StudentsCourses stud#namecoursecourse#name 100FredPHPHPharmacy 200DaveCMCMComputing 400 PeterENCHChemistry Students Courses stud#Students.namecoursecourse#Courses.name 100FredPHPHPharmacy 200DaveCMCMComputing 400 PeterENNULLNULL 15 SHIRAJ MOHAMED M | MIS
16
Right Outer Join Right Outer Join: A B Reverse of left outer join. Retrieves all tuples of B and null values for attributes of A in non-matching tuples of B SHIRAJ MOHAMED M | MIS 16
17
Right Outer Join - Example StudentsCourses stud#namecoursecourse#name 100FredPHPHPharmacy 200DaveCMCMComputing 400 PeterENCHChemistry Students Courses stud#Students.namecoursecourse#Courses.name 100 FredPHPHPharmacy 200 DaveCMCMComputing NULL NULLNULLCHChemistry 17 SHIRAJ MOHAMED M | MIS

19
Full Outer Join Full Outer Join: A B ensures that all tuples of A and B are present in the result set SHIRAJ MOHAMED M | MIS 19

Exercise 1 Query 1: List customers whose cred_lim is greater than £500. Query 2: List customers whose cred_lim is greater than £500 and lives in London. Example: Customer SHIRAJ MOHAMED M | MIS 20
21
Answers Query 1: List customers whose cred_lim is greater than £500. (cred_lim > 500) (customer) Query 2: List customers whose cred_lim is greater than £500 and lives in London. (cred_lim>500) AND (city=London) (customer) SHIRAJ MOHAMED M | MIS 21
22
Exercise 2 Reserves Sailors Boats 1.Find names of sailors who’ve reserved boat #103 2.Find names of sailors who’ve reserved a red boat 3.Find sailors who’ve reserved a red or a green boat 4.Find sailors who’ve reserved a red and a green boat 5. Find the names of sailors who’ve reserved all boats SHIRAJ MOHAMED M | MIS 22
23
1.Find names of sailors who’ve reserved boat #103 Solution 1: Solution 2: SHIRAJ MOHAMED M | MIS 23
24
2.Find names of sailors who’ve reserved a red boat Information about boat color only available in Boats; so need an extra join: v A more efficient (???) solution: SHIRAJ MOHAMED M | MIS 24
25
3.Find sailors who’ve reserved a red or a green boat Can identify all red or green boats, then find sailors who’ve reserved one of these boats: SHIRAJ MOHAMED M | MIS 25
26
4.Find sailors who’ve reserved a red and a green boat Previous approach won’t work! Must identify sailors who’ve reserved red boats, sailors who’ve reserved green boats, then find the intersection (note that sid is a key for Sailors): SHIRAJ MOHAMED M | MIS 26
27
5. Find the names of sailors who’ve reserved all boats Uses division; schemas of the input relations to / must be carefully chosen: v To find sailors who’ve reserved all ‘Interlake’ boats:..... SHIRAJ MOHAMED M | MIS 27
28
Aggregate Functions and Operations Aggregation function takes a collection of values and returns a single value as a result. avg: average value min: minimum value max: maximum value sum: sum of values count: number of values Aggregate operation in relational algebra G1, G2, …, Gn g F1( A1), F2( A2),…, Fn( An) (E) E is any relational-algebra expression G 1, G 2 …, G n is a list of attributes on which to group (can be empty) Each F i is an aggregate function Each A i is an attribute name
29
Aggregate Operation – Example Relation account grouped by branch-name: branch-name g sum(balance) (account) branch-nameaccount-numberbalance Perryridge Brighton Redwood A-102 A-201 A-217 A-215 A-222 400 900 750 700 branch-namebalance Perryridge Brighton Redwood 1300 1500 700
30
Aggregate Functions Result of aggregation does not have a name Can use rename operation to give it a name For convenience, we permit renaming as part of aggregate operation branch-name g sum(balance) as sum-balance (account)
