Poor Pluto

Pluto is a celestial object with an eccentric orbit. A minor planet classification (MPC) is its identification now, but for 76 years, Pluto was considered a full-fledged planet. A group of astronomers are working to reclassify it as a planet again, while yet another equally influential cabal of astronomers are fighting to keep it status quo. Business Standard brought…

Data Models and Pointers

A data model is an abstract model that organizes elements of data, and standardizes how they relate to one another as well as to properties of the real world entities. In a hierarchical model, data is organized into a tree-like structure, implying a single parent for each record. Record access is done by navigating downward through the data structure using pointers combined with…
