SUBMISSION

The assignment submission is via ELEARN. Your answers must in the form of a screenshot that consists of both the SQL query and the result display/table. Ensure that the background of the screenshots is in white colour.

3.

Each part of your assignment should be clearly labelled to identify the question that is being answered.

4.

Queries should be written so that they would work with all reasonable sets of test data, not just that which has been supplied (do not, for example, assume that there are only two surgeons).

5.

When a question asks for information related to a person or an operation type, a hospital ward or whatever by name, your SELECT statement should contain that name. Do not look up the corresponding PERSON_ID, etc and use that result in your answer.

For example, if the question asks to display Buddy Smith’s date of birth, your query should be as follows:

SELECT birth_date

FROM person

WHERE surname =’Smith’ AND first_name=’Buddy’;

 

and not the following, even it produces the same result.

 


SELECT birth_date

FROM person

WHERE person_id =’124’;

 

50% MARKS WILL BE DEDUCTED FOR SUCH VIOLATION

 

6.

Marks may be deducted if your SQL is excessively complicated.
