I am going to be designing a database engine for a project. I am starting out with the design and am looking for some help with some pseudo code or something to help me better understand the best way to implement code when the time comes. Again not looking for any coding help just help with designing the engine. Below are the methods I will be using:
I am thinking I would like to design this in a way that stores a folder (DB) on the main drive (C:/) and each file within that folder will be my tables and indexes. Thanks again for any help, I really appreciate and look forward to your responses.
