Data hierarchy

Data hierarchy is the step by step representation of complex data in different level starting from basic bits to highest level files.

We will discuss in this post how this hierarchy is formed.

The file is the highest level of data-hierarchy . Next to it is the record a person name together with its marks is referred to as records. Inside record the name of the student will be a field.
