Wow, I got that wrong!

I wrote the following:

A relational database is so named because the data it stores relates to each other. In SQL, the relationships between data is expressed in a query by what is known as a join.

What I meant was that the tables relate to each other.

That is wrong.

A relational database is so named because of the mathematic concept of the binary relation.
