4. SQL queries for implementing different OLAP operations.

5. Write high level language programs to implement different data preprocessing techniques.

a. Suppose that the data for analysis includes the attribute age. The age values for the data
tuples are (in increasing order) 13, 15, 16, 16, 19, 20, 20, 21, 22, 22, 25, 25, 25, 25, 30,

by bin means to smooth the data, using a bin depth of 3.

b. Write a C program to calculate the correlation coefficient. Use the following data to check
your code.
Suppose a hospital tested the age and body fat data for 18 randomly selected adults with
the following result:

Are these two variables positively or negatively correlated?

(a) min-max normalization
(b) z-score normalization
(c) Normalization by decimal scaling.

7. Write a high level program for the following:

Suppose that the data for analysis includes the attribute age. The age values for the data tuples are
(in increasing order)

13, 15, 16, 16, 19, 20, 20, 21, 22, 22, 25, 25, 25, 25, 30, 33, 33, 35, 35, 35, 36, 40, 45, 52, 70.
