Greetings from England

Hello everybody. My name is Ofek and I´m currently studying at a University in England. This has been the second time I had the privilage of learning SQL. In both occasions the class was taught SQL after a certain degree of programming learning, and both times I found out the programming skills of the students got better after learning SQL. Do you think there is a connection here? I think so because When learning SQL you start to think like a computer and the way works and retrievs data. do you think SQL should be taught as a pre-programming course?​

I think you have a point here

Hello Ofek when you learn SQL you have to do certain tasks with a limited set of functions and this help you think alittle more another thing is the mathemetics involving set theory that must be learnd before dealing with SQL i THINK that a skilled SQL programmer can easily be taught to be a skilled C programmer because in SQL he gets a programming point of view eli

Thanks for the answer Eli

Nice to see someone bothered to answer me.

I have a nother question for you if you like. So far I have learnt basic relational algebra concepts and Oracle impementaion of SQL. Is it enough to be a good DBA or do I have to continue study relational algebra and concepts like optimisation and normalisation which I hope you know better than I do what they mean. Answers in Hebrew will be welcomed because I have enough English to read as it is.​

בקשר למתימטיקה זה צריך להספיק

אבל אתה צריך גם ידע של תכנות (שפות פרוצדורליות ואובייקטים) וכן רקע של mcse (תקשורת,domains users,groups וכו)
