How to use Tabs in ASP.NET CORE

I want to show Components in a tabs , so first of all create few components. In this project we have three components, First View Component  public class AllViewComponent : ViewComponent     {         private readonly UserManager<ApplicationUser> _userManager;         public AllViewComponent(UserManager<ApplicationUser> userManager)         {             _userManager = userManager;         }         public async Task<IViewComponentResult> InvokeAsync()         {             List<StudentViewModel> allUsers = new List<StudentViewModel>();             var items = await _userManager.Users.ToListAsync();             foreach (var item in items)             {                 allUsers.Add(new StudentViewModel {Id=item.Id, EnrollmentNo = item.EnrollmentNo, FatherName = item.FatherName, Name = item.Name, Age = item.Age, Birthdate = item.Birthdate, Address = item.Address, Gender = item.Gender, Email = item.Email });             }            

Types of Indexes provided by SQL Server

As described in the earlier article indexes can be managed easily. The SQL Server allows you to create the following types of indexes:

Clustered Index

A clustered index is an index that sorts and stores the data rows in the table based on their key values. Therefore, the data is physically sorted in the table when a clustered index is defined on it. Only one clustered index can be created per table. Therefore, you should build the index on attributes that have a high percentage of unique values and are not modified often.

In a clustered index, data is stored at the leaf level of the B-Tree. The SQL Server performs the following steps when it uses a clustered index to search for a value:
  • The SQL Server obtains the address of the root page from the sysindexes table, which is a system table containing the details of all the indexes in the database.
  • The search value is compared with the key values on the root page.
  • The page with the highest key value less than or equal to the search value is found.
  • The page pointer is followed to the next lower level in the index.
  • Steps 3 and 4 are repeated until the data page is reached.
  • The rows of data are searched on the data page until the search value is found. If the search value is not found on the data page, no rows are returned by the query.
Consider the following figure where the rows of the Employee table are sorted according to the Eid attribute and stored in the table.

Working of a Clustered Index

The preceding figure displays a clustered index on the Employee table. To search for any record, the SQL Server would start at the root page. It would then move down the B-Tree and the data values would be found on the leaf pages of the B-Tree. For example, if the row containing Eid E006 was to be searched by using a clustered index (refer to the preceding figure), the SQL Server perform the following steps:
  • The SQL Server starts from page 603, the root page.
  • The SQL Server searches for the highest key value on the page, which is less than or equal to the search value. The result of this search is the page containing the pointer to Eid E005.
  • The search continues from page 602. There, Eid E005 is found and the search continues to page 203.
  • Page 203 is searched to find the required row.
A clustered index determines the order in which the rows are actually stored. Therefore, you can define only one clustered index on a table.

Polynomial representation using Linked List for Data Structure in 'C'

Polynomial representation using Linked List The linked list can be used to represent a polynomial of any degree. Simply the information field is changed according to the number of variables used in the polynomial. If a single variable is used in the polynomial the information field of the node contains two parts: one for coefficient of variable and the other for degree of variable. Let us consider an example to represent a polynomial using linked list as follows: Polynomial:      3x 3 -4x 2 +2x-9 Linked List: In the above linked list, the external pointer ‘ROOT’ point to the first node of the linked list. The first node of the linked list contains the information about the variable with the highest degree. The first node points to the next node with next lowest degree of the variable. Representation of a polynomial using the linked list is beneficial when the operations on the polynomial like addition and subtractions are performed. The resulting polynomial can also

Memory representation of Linked List Data Structures in C Language

                                 Memory representation of Linked List              In memory the linked list is stored in scattered cells (locations).The memory for each node is allocated dynamically means as and when required. So the Linked List can increase as per the user wish and the size is not fixed, it can vary.                Suppose first node of linked list is allocated with an address 1008. Its graphical representation looks like the figure shown below:       Suppose next node is allocated at an address 506, so the list becomes,   Suppose next node is allocated with an address with an address 10,s the list become, The other way to represent the linked list is as shown below:  In the above representation the data stored in the linked list is “INDIA”, the information part of each node contains one character. The external pointer root points to first node’s address 1005. The link part of the node containing information I contains 1007, the address of
