Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.misc -> Re: how important is data base design to programmers?
In my exp the people who design the database are not typically the
same people that program using the database. In several instances
I have noticed that the two diferrent groups think entirely different and
go about things with a completely different methodology.
I beleive the more you know abouthow the database is designed, the better programmer you will be.
just my thoughts!!
