1. row

   A row can refer to several things based on its context: 1. In a physical setting, it can mean a linear arrangement of objects, people, or structures side by side or extending in a line. 2. In a digital or data-oriented context, especially referring to spreadsheets and databases, a row denotes a horizontal series of data cells or a record. 3. In the context of fitness or physical activity, a row can be an exercise that targets various muscle groups. 4. In marine terms, a row means moving a boat or any other waterborne vessel propelling oars. 5. It can also denote a conflict, argument, or dispute, where people have disagreements or quarrels. The definition of a row, therefore, largely depends on the context in which it is being used.

1. Row

   In the context of a relational database, a row—also called a record or tuple—represents a single, implicitly structured data item in a table. In simple terms, a database table can be thought of as consisting of rows and columns or fields. Each row in a table represents a set of related data, and every row in the table has the same structure. For example, in a table that represents companies, each row would represent a single company. Columns might represent things like company name, company street address, whether the company is publicly held, its VAT number, etc.. In a table that represents the association of employees with departments, each row would associate one employee with one department. In a less formal usage, e.g. for a database which is not formally relational, a record is equivalent to a row as described above, but is not usually referred to as a row. The implicit structure of a row, and the meaning of the data values in a row, requires that the row be understood as providing a succession of data values, one in each column of the table. The row is then interpreted as a relvar composed of a set of tuples, with each tuple consisting of the two items: the name of the relevant column and the value this row provides for that column.
