Consider the following database schema for a BOOKSTORE database:

  • Books (bookid, title, author, year)
  • Customers (customerid, name, email)
  • Purchases (customerid, bookid, year)
  • Reviews (customerid, bookid, rating)
  • Pricing (bookid, format, price)

The Books relation stores information about books sold by the bookstore. Note that bookid is the primary key. An example tuple is as follows:

(105, 'JAVA PROGRAMMING', 'JOHN DOE', 2001)

The Customers relation stores information about the customers of the bookstore. Note that customerid is the primary key. An example tuple is as follows:

(210, 'JOHN SMITH', '[email protected]')

The Purchases relation stores information about the customer purchases of books. Note that customerid and bookid form the primary key. An example tuple is as follows:

(210, 105, 2002), indicating that 'JOHN SMITH' with customerid 210 purchased the 'JAVA PROGRAMMING' book with bookid 105 in the year 2002.

The Reviews relation stores information about the customer reviews/ratings of the books. The ratings field refers to the number of "stars" given to the book. Note that customerid and bookid form the primary key. An example tuple is as follows:

(210, 105, 3), indicating that 'JOHN SMITH' with customerid 210 gave a 3-star rating to the 'JAVA PROGRAMMING' book with bookid 105.

The Pricing relation stores information about the price of the various books sold by the bookstore. Note that the same book can be available in multiple formats at possibly different prices. The price field refers to the number of dollars. For instance a $25 purchase will have a price field of 25. Note that the bookid and format fields form the primary key for the relation. An example tuple is as follows:

(105, 'AUDIO', 25), indicating that the 'JAVA PROGRAMMING' book with bookid 105 is available in the audio format for $25.

Given the above schema, write queries for the following:

  1. Find books (show their titles) written by 'EDMUND MORGAN' since year 1990.
  2. Find books (show their titles, authors and prices) that are on 'CIVIL WAR' (i.e., the title field contains 'CIVIL WAR'), available in 'AUDIO' format.
  3. For each year, 'JOHN CHAMBERS' purchased at least one book, find the number of books purchased. That is, the output should be a set of tuples, each indicating a year and the number of books purchased by 'JOHN CHAMBERS' in that year.
  4. Find customers (show their names and email addresses) who purchased more than one book in year 2003.
  5. Find the ratings information (show titles, authors and average ratings) for books on 'CIVIL WAR' (i.e., title contains 'CIVIL WAR').
