The relational algebra calculator helps you learn relational algebra (RelAlg) by executing it.

If you want to learn SQL you take a database system and try some queries.
But if you want to learn relational algebra what do you use? Pen and paper?

Well, that’s a REALLY fine piece of software. Sadly there’s no license…

Object-relational Mappers (ORMs) – Full Stack Python

Object-relational Mappers (ORMs) – Full Stack Python

Object-relational mappers (ORMs) bridge relational databases and data represented in Python code. Great post on Full Stack Python about Object-relational Mappers (ORMs)!

When I started coding most of them didn’t exist. In fact an unfinished project of mine started hand-coding an object-relational mapping. I think I shall restart from those.

 

Today I’ve been talking to an (civil?) engineer from Cuneo. In the long phone call, among many other precious informations he told me that it’s quite unusual to see an actual engineer working in a ready-mix concrete plant.

I replied that we – for a feasible definition of “we” – want to focus on quality and innovation in a sector – building and construction – which is, especially in Italy really traditionalist and loath to innovation.

It made me think quite a lot about it.
