A table contains rows (tuple or record) and columns (fields). Now let us assume that we have a salary table that contains the names of the employees and their salary. So in that table (assume 2*2 matrix) we can give the headings as names and salary.
In the 1st row the 1st data heading is name and beside that 1st data of the 1st row we put salary as the 2nd data of the 1st row. So from here we can say that a row contains 2 different types of fields- the characters (name) and the numeric (salary).
So rows can be said as the collection of various info's, or in one word row is a record. Again in the 2nd row 1st data we put a X (i.e name is X below the name heading) and we put rs 2000 as a 2nd data of the 2nd row (i.e below the salary heading).
So from the point of column we can say that name heading is containing only characters (names can not be in 1000 or 2k format) and salary heading is contain only numeric (salary can not be in X or Y format). So the conclusion is that columns (field) contain only same type of data.
