In lecture, the professor explain databases. It's a system that manages large amounts of information. It also makes it easier to make quick decisions about information. It's like having a virtual file cabinet with out all the mess and unorganized papers. However, it can still become that way.
If a person does not know how to organize information, the files will be confusing to read and unorganized. The professor explained that the easiest way to set up a database is by using a numerical order that identify each piece of data individually. The you can create quick queries that connect all pieces of data with its correct number.
Using a database is much better than using a spreadsheet. Databases are much more organized and can hold a lot of memory. Spreadsheets have this ability but has a limit. It cannot make queries and have different lists that have relationships.
