UserRecord
UserRecord is a data structure commonly used in software development to store information about an individual user. It typically encapsulates various attributes related to a user, such as their username, password (often hashed for security), email address, and a unique identifier. Additional fields may include profile information like first name, last name, date of birth, and contact details. Permissions or roles assigned to the user are also frequently part of a UserRecord, determining what actions they can perform within the system. The specific fields included in a UserRecord can vary significantly depending on the application's requirements and the type of data it needs to manage. Databases often utilize tables with columns corresponding to the fields of a UserRecord to store and retrieve user information efficiently. When a user logs into a system, their credentials are typically compared against the stored UserRecord to authenticate their identity.
