A programmer chooses a database for a new application that needs to store information, including dates, times, names, and amounts. Which of the following database features is this an example of?
Correct Answer: D
Variety is the database feature that refers to the ability to store different types of data, such as dates, times, names, and amounts. A database that supports variety can handle diverse and complex data formats, which is useful for applications that need to store information from various sources or domains. Concurrency, speed, and scalability are also important database features, but they are not directly related to the types of data that can be stored.
