The term Field computer science field is often used interchangeably with column , although many consider it more correct to use field or field value to refer specifically to the single item that exists at the intersection between one row and one column. For example, a table that represents companies might have the following columns ID integer identifier, unique to each row Name text Address line 1 text Address line 2 text City integer identifier, drawn from a separate table of cities, from which any state or country information would be drawn Postal code text Industry integer identifier, drawn from a separate table of industries etc. Each row would provide a data value for each column and would then be understood as a single structured data value, in this case representing a company. More formally, each row can be interpreted as a relvar , composed of a set of tuple s, with each tuple consisting of the two items the name of the relevant column and the value this row provides for that column. table border 1 tr th th Column 1 th Column 2 tr th Row 1 td Row 1, Column 1 td Row 1, Column 2 tr th Row 2 td Row 2, Column 1 td Row 2, Column 2 tr th Row 3 td Row 3, Column 1 td Row 3, Column 2 table See also Column oriented DBMS Optimization for column centric queries Column data store A similar object used in distributed data store s Row database References references database stub Categories Category Data modeling Interwikies ca Columna base de dades cs Datab zov sloupec es Columna base de datos lv Kolonna datub ze nl Kolom database ja ... more details

Some of the common parameters analyzed in the water column are pH , turbidity , temperature , salinity , total dissolved solids , various pesticide s, pathogen s and a wide variety of chemicals and biota ecology biota . The concept of water column is quite important, since many aquatic phenomena are explained by the incomplete vertical mixing of chemical, physical or biological parameters. For example, when studying the metabolism of Benthos benthic organisms , it is the specific bottom layer concentration of available chemical s in the water column that is meaningful, rather than the average value of those chemicals throughout the water column. Hydrostatic pressure can be analyzed by the height of a water column, which effectively yields the pressure at a given depth of the column.

Already at the first people celebration in 1818 there was a fruit column as landmark, which had been sketched and built by the master of building of yards of Wuerttemberg at that time, Nikolaus Thouret. After the First World War, with which beginning of the first German republic became, the fruit column was banned as monarchistic leftover from the Cannstatter Wasen. Since 1935, it stands for the 100th anniversary again on its traditional place. The fruit column, whose design was changed in the course of the years, was dismantled until recently annually after conclusion of the people celebration. Every few years a new fruit column with other Design was established again and again. Starting in 1995 it was experimentally let long all season stand by way of trial and was thus also on Stuttgart spring celebrations to be seen for the first time.
