Example: A student record contains the last name, mark (ID Number, first name, etc.) A class list is a collection of student records. A departmental database is a collection of class lists.

Design modules to handle operations on each data structure. The level of the module in the structure chart should (more or less) correspond to the size of the data they handle.
