Data Organisation - Overview
In order to understand how and why a data file is organised it is necessary to understand the different ways a computer can store the data.

This module deals with traditional (eg. serial) and modern (eg.database) file structures, and looks at how the computer stores the data (physical) and how we see the data (logical).

It serves as a brief introduction to further study on Files and Databases.
