[REBOL] Re: REBOL Relational Object-oriented Database

Hi Loius,
The term database is usually meant to be more than 1 table, which is what confused me
about your question. For example I have used an oracle database that consists of hundreds
of tables.
Cant remember the exact definition of Relaional but I think we get the idea of what you
were talking about.
I agree with your definition of Object Oriented.
Cheers Phil

Graham,
What I think one is (at least what I meant when I wrote that title):
Relational = having two or more databases joined together by a key field
(or fields) so that the proper data can be pulled from the two (or more)
databases as though they were one.
Object-oriented=the concept of bundling data and functions together in a
container called an object so that the code can be easily reused (and
extended) and so that two different objects may contain symbols that
contain identical names with conflict.
I am not a professional programmer. If I am wrong please let me know.
