Main Teaching Activities and Time Allocation 主要教学活动和时间分配
Database Theory Review: Discussion on databases, primary keys (analogy to hash), composite keys, foreign keys, one-to-many relationships, and the importance of avoiding data redundancy.
数据库理论复习: 讨论数据库、主键(与哈希的类比)、复合键、外键、一对多关系以及避免数据冗余的重要性。
Database Normalization (0NF to 2NF/3NF): Analyzing a messy table (0NF), moving to 1NF (atomicity), and then splitting tables to achieve 2NF/3NF to remove repeating data (e.g., storing names separately from subjects).
数据库范式(0NF 到 2NF/3NF): 分析一个混乱的表(0NF),过渡到 1NF(原子性),然后拆分表以实现 2NF/3NF,以消除重复数据(例如,将姓名与科目分开存储)。
LeetCode: Power of Two (Bitwise Operations): Guided solving of the 'Power of Two' problem, focusing on the binary representation property (only one '1' bit) and using bitwise operators (AND, NOT) to solve without loops, including handling edge cases (zero, negative numbers).
LeetCode:二的幂(位运算): 引导解决“二的幂”问题,重点关注二进制表示特性(只有一个 '1' 位),并使用位运算符(AND, NOT)在不使用循环的情况下解决问题,包括处理边界情况(零、负数)。
