Field (computer Science)




Programming Language s usually have a Record Data Type to represent composite data types as a series of ''fields''. An Array of Boolean values can be represented as a '' Bit Field ''.

Relational Database s arrange data as sets of Database Record s, also called Rows . Each record consists of several ''fields''; the fields of all records form the Columns .

In Object-oriented Programming , ''field'' (also called ''data member'') is the Data Encapsulated within a Class or Object . In the case of a regular field (also called ''instance variable''), for each Instance of the object there is an instance variable. A static field (also called ''class variable'') is one variable, which is shared by all instances.
