This document defines key terms related to databases and data analysis. It discusses what a database is and the steps to create one, including setting objectives, analyzing data needs, designing the database structure, creating and entering data, and using feedback. It also defines common database concepts like entities, attributes, fields, relationships, and data validation. Finally, it covers Excel functions for organizing and analyzing data, such as sorting, filtering, subtotals, dynamic tables, and dynamic graphics.

3. 1. Database: is a collection or set of stored
data organized, structured and systematized in

element and the next there are multiple items.

10. 19. several to several relation: on
both sides of the relationship there
are several elements, but among
them there is one element that
unites them.
20. Data Validation: the user is trying to
make the least mistakes, so that the
information is of good quality.

11. 21. Lists: excel provides a list of features
designed to facilitate the management
and analysis of groups of related data in
a worksheet.
Is a data conjunto organized in rows or

and the other rows contain the data
stored.
22. Sorting: Sort the data is part of data
analysis you may want to put a list of names
in alphabetical order, compile a list of levels
of higher-invetario unless sort rows by colors
or icons, arrange data helps to see them and
understand them better as well as to
organize and more easily plugged Find them
make effective decisions.

gives us almost immediately totals rows with

that the analysis becomes easier.
26. Dynamic Graphics: is a graphic based on a
pivot table that automatically adjusts to apply
any filter on the graphic information.
