Relations
Relations are a
way of connecting elements of sets
. Example : Consider the relation R from [W ,
X
,
Y , 2) to [10 , 15 , 203 that relates

Relations between two or more sets are used in databases
w
· to 10 , 13 and 20


Crolational databases) for example to capture student records
· I to 10 and
,
with entries such as

2 to 10 and 20
(name , id number degree type degree name).

Notation

A relation R from a set S to set T is a subset of

This is sometime written as 2

R : S 1 > T
