01 it reversed the string

what was your query and normalised tables?
SELECT OrderDate? , Postcode? , Something else
FROM PriceBand, Parcel
WHERE Parcel.CustomerId= 104
ORDERBY Orderdate descending
Normalised table:

ParcelDelivery(PrimaryKey(postcode), Street, Town, County) Then removed the street name etc. from parcel and just left postcode

Not sure though..
How was the pseudocode question?

You also need to select FirstName and Surname ,
From Customer also,
also need another condition. Where Customer.ID = Parcel.ID and Customer.ID = 104
also its Ascending not descending.:biggrin:

Why would you need another condition? You can just check to see if the customer ID was in the parcel table. I did that because i saw it in a past paper like that.

I replaced Street, Town, Country with AddressID in Parcel
then made a new table
Address ( AddressID (Underlined), Street, Town, Country)

to get the customer's details. Even though it didn't state it, the parcel delivery needs to know the name and surname of the person their delivering to, not just their ID

The question said no other details... just those in bold and names were not included..
(edited 7 years ago)
Did everyone get -1344 or something like that for the floating point question?
(edited 7 years ago)
Why would you need the name of the person delivering to? The question is about parcels ordered by a specific customer, and it stated no extra details needed.
