Read MoreHow to get empty files in Windows OS using PowerShell?
To get the list of empty files in Windows OS using PowerShell, there are two ways, a) Using Length parameter. We will count the length of the file. If it is 0 then the file is empty as shown below.Get-ChildItem C:\Temp\ -Recurse | where{$_.Length -eq 0} | Select @{N='EmptyFiles';E={$_.FullName}}Output:b) Another method is a long one that we don’t want to go into. We need to check each file's content and if it is empty then we will declare that file as an empty file.Get-ChildItem C:\Temp -Recurse -File | foreach{ if((Get-Content $_.FullName) -eq $null){ ...
Read MoreDifference Between 3NF and BCNF
In this post, we will understand the difference between 3NF and BCNF.3NFThere shouldn’t be any transitive dependency.There shouldn’t be any non-prime attribute that depends transitively on a candidate key.It is not as strong as BCNF.It has high redundancy.The functional dependencies are already present in INF and 2NF.It is easy to achieve.It can be used to achieve lossless decomposition.BCNFFor any relation A->B, ‘A’ should be a super key of that specific relation.It is stronger than 3NF.The functional dependencies are present in 1NF, 2NF and 3NF.It has low redundancy in comparison to 3NF.The functional dependencies may or may not be preserved.It is ...

In this post, we will understand the difference between T-SQL and PL-SQL.T-SQLIt is a Microsoft product.It is known as Transact Structure Query language.It gives a high degree of control to the developers/programmers.It works its best, and provides good performance with Microsoft SQL server.It is easy.It is simple to understand.It allows the insertion of multiple rows into a table.This is done with the help of the ‘BULK INSERT’ statement.The ‘SELECT INTO’ statement is used in T-SQLIn this, the ‘NOT EXISTS’ clause can be used with the ‘SELECT’ statements.PL-SQLIt is an Oracle product.It is known as Procedural Language Structural Query Language.It is ...
Read MoreDifference Between Linear and Logistic Regression
In this post, we will understand the difference between linear regression and logistic regression.Linear RegressionIt helps predict the variable that is continuous, and is a dependent variable.This is done using a given set of independent variables.It extrapolates a line to find the value of dependent variable.Least square methods are used to estimate the accuracy.The best fit line is found, that helps predict the output.It is generally a continuous value.The relation between the dependent variable and independent variable has to be linear.The independent variables may have collinearity between them.It is considered a machine learning problem, i.e an applied statistics problem.Logistic RegressionIt ...
Read MoreDifference Between Grant and Revoke
In this post, we will understand the difference between grant and revoke.GrantIt is a DCL command.It grants permissions to users on database objects.It can also be used to assign access rights to users.For every user, the permissions need to be specified.When the access is decentralized, permission granting is easier.Syntax:grant privilege_name on object_name to {user_name | public | role_name}RevokeIt is a DCL command.It removes permissions if they are granted to users on database objects.It takes away/revokes the rights of the users.If access for a user is removed, all specific permissions provided by that user to others will be removed.If decentralized access ...

In this post, we will understand the difference between backup and recovery.BackupIt refers to storing a copy of the original data in a separate memory location.It is basically a copy of data that is used to restore the original data in case of a data loss/damage.It is the replication of data.It just keeps one extra copy to ensure data is not lost forever.It helps in giving data protection.It makes the process of data recovery hassle free and easy.It is an affordable process.It is used in production environments.Example - SnapManager helps create a backup of data and everything else in the ...
Read MoreDifference Between Local and Global Variable
In this post, we will understand the difference between local and global variables.Local variableIt is generally declared inside a function.If it isn’t initialized, a garbage value is stored inside it.It is created when the function begins its execution.It is lost when the function is terminated.Data sharing is not possible since the local variable/data can be accessed by a single function.Parameters need to be passed to local variables so that they can access the value in the function.It is stored on a stack, unless mentioned otherwise.They can be accessed using statement inside the function where they are declared.When the changes are ...
