Q:

What is correlated query? Explain its uses.

Answer

In a correlated query, the outer query is related to the inner query. This means one or more columns in the outer query are referenced. It’s used when the outer queries value is being used by inner query. For example, we need to find which employee had more perks in the current month than they did in the previous month. The correlated subquery is executed for each row of perks information in the parent query to first determine what the perks were for each employee in the previous month. This data, in turn, is compared to perks for each employee in the current month, and only those employees whose perks in the current month were greater that their previous month's perks are returned.

Q:

How do you sort in a COBOL program? Give sort file definition, sort statement syntax and meaning.

Answer

Syntax:


SORT   file-1 ON ASCENDING/DESCENDING KEY key....


USING  file-2


GIVING file-3.


 


USING can be substituted by INPUT PROCEDURE IS para-1 THRU para-2


GIVING can be substituted by OUTPUT PROCEDURE IS para-1 THRU para-2.


 


file-1 is the sort workfile and must be described using SD entry in FILE SECTION.


file-2 is the input file for the SORT and must be described using an FD entry in FILE SECTION and SELECT clause in FILE CONTROL.


file-3 is the outfile from the SORT and must be described using an FD entry in FILE SECTION and SELECT clause in FILE CONTROL.


file-1, file-2 & file-3 should not be opened explicitly.


 


INPUT PROCEDURE is executed before the sort and records must be RELEASEd to the sort work file from the input procedure.


OUTPUT PROCEDURE is executed after all records have been sorted. Records from the sort work file must be RETURNed one at a time to the output procedure.

Q:

What is the use of CSS sprites?

Answer

- A web page with large number of images takes a longer time to load. This is because each image separately sends out a http request.


- The concept of CSS sprite helps in reducing this loading time for a web page by combining various small images into one image. This reduces the numbers of http request and hence the loading time.
