Show answer
Correct Option: C

AI Explanation

To answer this question, you need to understand the character functions used in string manipulation.

Option A) INSTR - This option is incorrect because the INSTR function is used to find the starting position of a specified substring within a string.

Option B) SUBSTRING - This option is incorrect because the SUBSTRING function is used to extract a substring from a string based on a specified starting position and length.

Option C) SUBSTR - This option is correct because the SUBSTR function is used to extract a substring from a string based on a specified starting position and, optionally, a length.

Option D) POS - This option is incorrect because there is no standard character function called POS in most programming languages or database systems.

The correct answer is C) SUBSTR. This option is correct because the SUBSTR function is specifically designed to return a specified portion of a character string.

Which of the following is not true for Stored Procedures?

technology databases

  1. Simplifies code reuse, code standardization and code maintenance

  2. Controlled access to other database objects

  3. Improving application performance

  4. DB2 Stored Procedures can be written only in SQL.

Show answer
Correct Option: D

AI Explanation

To answer this question, let's go through each option to understand why it is correct or incorrect:

Option A) Simplifies code reuse, code standardization, and code maintenance - This option is true for Stored Procedures. Stored Procedures provide a way to encapsulate a set of SQL statements into a single unit, making it easier to reuse the code, maintain a standard structure, and update the code in one place.

Option B) Controlled access to other database objects - This option is true for Stored Procedures. Stored Procedures can control access to other database objects by specifying the necessary permissions and privileges required to execute the procedure. This helps in enforcing security and preventing unauthorized access to the database.

Option C) Improving application performance - This option is true for Stored Procedures. Stored Procedures can improve application performance by reducing network traffic. Instead of sending multiple SQL statements from the application to the database, the application can call a single Stored Procedure that performs the necessary operations on the database server, reducing the overhead of multiple round trips.

Option D) DB2 Stored Procedures can be written only in SQL - This option is not true for Stored Procedures. DB2 Stored Procedures can be written in other programming languages such as COBOL, C, Java, etc., in addition to SQL. This allows developers to leverage the power of different programming languages to implement complex business logic within the Stored Procedures.

The correct answer is D. This option is not true because DB2 Stored Procedures can be written in languages other than SQL.
