Selecting a data type involves which of the following?

  • A.Maximize storage space
  • B.Represent most values
  • C.Improve data integrity
  • D.
    All of the above.

Answer: C

Correct answer: Improve data integrity

Choosing a type that admits only the values the attribute can legitimately take is itself a constraint: a date column will not accept a non-date, and a numeric one will not accept text. The other options are the reverse of what is wanted - storage should be minimised, and a type admitting the widest range of values weakens the check.
