What is Sequential File Organization?
Sequential file organization is a method where records are stored in a specific order. For instance, imagine the names of students listed alphabetically in a proper sequence. At the end of the file, new records can be added and there is no fixed length in it as you can update it. Efficient for small datasets as the linear structure allows for quick processing and the entire set can be traversed easily.
Types of Sequential File Organization
Sequential file organization is further classified as:
- Pile File Method
- Sorted File Method
