Rows and Columns


A table stores data using rows and columns.

Columns define the type of data that can be stored.

Rows store the actual data values inside the table.

Each column has a specific name and data type.

The column name describes what kind of information it holds.

The data type defines the type of value that can be stored.

Rows are also called records.

Each row contains complete information for one entry.

When new data is added, a new row is created in the table.

Columns remain fixed in structure.

Rows can increase as new data is inserted.

This structure allows databases to manage large data efficiently.

Understanding rows and columns helps developers design proper tables.

Good table structure improves performance and data clarity.

This concept is essential before inserting or updating records.
