Minicourse A: Database Programming in DataJoint for Python

1. Work with Tables
   • connections, schemas, dj.config
   • tables and classes
   • attributes and their types
   • primary key
   • insert and delete
   • lookup tables
   • fetch, head, tail
   • iterations
   • restrict and proj
   • insert from query
   • drop and alter
2. Dependencies
   • primary and secondary dependencies
   • python modules
   • spawning classes
   • transactions, master-part relationship
   • diagramming
   • renamed attributes
   • patterns: hierarchy, membership, pairings and groupings
   • unique and optional dependencies
   • indexes
3. Advanced Queries
   • join
   • aggr
