Q9. You develop a Microsoft SQL Server 2012 database. The database is used by two web applications that access a table named Products. 

You want to create an object that will prevent the applications from accessing the table directly while still providing access to the required data. 

You need to ensure that the following requirements are met: 

. Future modifications to the table definition will not affect the applications' ability to access data. . The new object can accommodate data retrieval and data modification. 

You need to achieve this goal by using the minimum amount of changes to the existing applications. 

What should you create for each application? 

A. table partitions 

B. views 

C. table-valued functions 

D. stored procedures

Q10. You create a table that has the StudentCode, SubjectCode, and Marks columns to record mid-year marks for students. The table has marks obtained by 50 students for various subjects. 

You need to ensure that the following requirements are met: 

Students must be ranked based on their average marks. 

If one or more students have the same average, the same rank must be given to 

these students. 

Consecutive ranks must be skipped when the same rank is assigned. 

Which Transact-SQL query should you use? 

A. SELECT StudentCode as Code, RANK() OVER(ORDER BY AVG (Marks) DESC) AS Value FROM StudentMarks GROUP BY StudentCode 

B. SELECT Id, Name, Marks, DENSE_RANK() OVER(ORDER BY Marks DESC) AS Rank FROM StudentMarks 

C. SELECT StudentCode as Code, DENSE_RANK() OVER(ORDER BY AVG (Marks) DESC) AS Value FROM StudentMarks GROUP BY StudentCode 

D. SELECT StudentCode as Code, NTILE(2) OVER(ORDER BY AVG (Marks) DESC) AS Value FROM StudentMarks GROUP BY StudentCode 

E. SELECT StudentCode AS Code,Marks AS Value FROM ( SELECT StudentCode, Marks AS Marks, RANK() OVER(PARTITION BY SubjectCode ORDER BY Marks ASC) AS Rank FROM StudentMarks) tmp WHERE Rank = 1 

F. SELECT StudentCode AS Code,Marks AS Value FROM ( SELECT StudentCode, Marks AS Marks, RANK() OVER(PARTITION BY SubjectCode ORDER BY Marks DESC) AS Rank FROM StudentMarks) tmp WHERE Rank = 1 

G. SELECT StudentCode AS Code,Marks AS Value FROM ( SELECT StudentCode, Marks AS Marks, RANK() OVER(PARTITION BY StudentCode ORDER BY Marks ASC) AS Rank FROM StudentMarks) tmp WHERE Rank = 1 

H. SELECT StudentCode AS Code,Marks AS Value FROM ( SELECT StudentCode, Marks AS Marks, RANXO OVER(PARTITION BY StudentCode ORDER BY Marks DESC) AS Rank FROM StudentMarks) tmp WHERE Rank = 1
