please help
iunt thal inore than 16 bits for Unicode would be even more versatile than the 16 bits Unicode actually uses. 4. Suppose you were setting up a database system to record customer information for a business. Basic information would include name, address, and telephone number. Many database systems require the user to specify the type of storage for each field. a) How would you specify the name field (e.g., ASCII, Unicode; maximum length of name)? Why? b) How would you specify the telephone number (e.g., ASCII how many characters], Unicode [how many characters], integer [16-bit, 32-bit, or 64- bit])? Why?Explanation / Answer
As far as storing the names is considered ASCII is the first choice and it depends
if one wants a unicode or not.Unicode is the superset of ASCII.Even the range 0-128
is same in ASCII and Unicode.ASCII takes 8 bits per character but Unicode will take
more number of bits.So it will come to storage issue also
b) As far as phone number is considered, we can go int of size 32 (standard size).This
may depend upon the number of digits of the value of the phone number.The accii or Unicode will take much more bits as compared to integer values.
