Lekérdezik

Lekérdezik is a Hungarian verb that translates to "to query," "to ask for," or "to retrieve" in English. It is commonly used in computing contexts, particularly when referring to databases and data retrieval. When a user or a program lekérdezik data, they are essentially sending a request to a system to obtain specific information. This process involves formulating a query, which is a set of instructions that tell the system what data to find and how to present it.

In database management, lekérdezik is a fundamental operation. For instance, a user might lekérdezik customer information from a sales database by specifying criteria such as customer name or purchase history. Software applications frequently use this verb when they need to access and display information stored elsewhere. The underlying mechanism often involves structured query language (SQL) or similar query languages that define the parameters of the lekérdezik. The efficiency of a lekérdezik operation can significantly impact the performance of an application, especially when dealing with large datasets. The term can also be used in more general scenarios, referring to the act of asking for or seeking out information.
