Transactions

Unless you are programming :const forms, you will need to manipulate tables and state in order to say anything useful.

In relic, you manipulate your database with transact.

transact is a function that accepts a database and a set of 'transaction ops', returning a new database with the ops applied.

A key idea with relic is that you can only manipulate tables, and you try to keep data in tables to a minimum, rederiving everything else with queries. materialization enables high performance in the face of this.

Ops

You basic operations mirror the SQL ones, see the linked docs for more info.

• :update
• :delete
