Answer to Question 1

Forward only cursors are the simplest type of cursor, and only allow the application program to move forward through the record set. The three other types of cursors are all scrollable cursors, meaning that the application program can move forward and backward through the record set. Static cursors take a snapshot of the relation at the point in time when the cursor was opened. Keyset cursors save a copy of the primary key value for each record in the cursor. This key value is then used to retrieve the values of each record as the application program accesses that record. Dynamic cursors are fully functional cursors and can see any changes made to the records by any committed transactions.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
