Data Retrieval Methods

Data retrieval methods are techniques used to access and gather information stored in databases or data systems. They include querying, where specific questions are asked to find relevant data; indexing, which organizes data for faster searches; and search algorithms, which efficiently locate particular data points. These methods ensure that data can be retrieved accurately and efficiently to support decision-making, reporting, or analysis. Essentially, they are systematic ways to access the right information quickly from large amounts of stored data.
