Hello all, i need some help with databases, want to learn how to create them. Does anyone have a tutorial site that i could go to to learn how to create a simple database. Also, if anyone has a sample of a database, could they post it so i could take a look. Thanks
Writing a DB is a very complicated task. First you must decide how you want your DB to behave, is it for single user or multiple users at once? Is it going to use SQL or some proprietary query language? Either way you need to write an interpretor for reading in the querys and to parse them, you need to either use an existing DB file format or create your own, you must have a file management system, and so on. Why not just program a front end and use something like MySQL in the background, just have your app interface with it?

i just want to create a small database with:
name
average mark
age
birthdate
.
then i want the to be able to add records, delete records, find the people with above 80 mark, people over 19, things like that.
just a program, not a high tech thing like something that would be for sale.
well write a prog. that keeps a file, read in the file, parse the recods and then search through them, not a complicated task, just look up file reading/writing and parsing.
