About the Book

RDBMS, or Relational Database Management Systems are the most popular systems today in managing large databases. Most of the data management applications are backed up by an RDBMS like MySQL, or Postgres, or Oracle, or SQL Server or other. For that reason, it is very important to learn SQL, Structured Query Language, the language that is used to retrieve and manipulate data that are stored inside a relational database. MySQL is going to be the RDBMS that we will install and use for learning. MySQL is very popular in many production systems. So, learning to work with MySQL will give you a very good asset as a Web developer.

Code Club

https://www.codeclub.org.uk

A nationwide network of volunteer-led after school coding clubs for children aged 9-11.

We create projects for our volunteers to teach at after school coding clubs or at non-school venues such as libraries. The projects we make teach children how to program by showing them how to make computer games, animations and websites. Our volunteers go to their local club for an hour a week and teach one project a week. Each term the students will progress and learn more whilst at the same time using their imaginations and making creative projects. Terms 1 & 2 use Scratch to teach the basics of programming. Term 3 teaches the basics of web development using HTML and CSS. Term 4 teaches Python and so on. We’d like to put a Code Club in every single primary school in the country. There are over 21,000 primary schools in the UK, it’s a big task but we think we can do it!
