Explain the difference between DataSet and DataReader with?

examples.

• DataSet: Works in a disconnected mode and holds multiple tables and relationships.

You can navigate and manipulate the data offline.

• Example: Use a DataSet to hold customer and order data for offline

processing.

• DataReader: A forward-only, read-only cursor that requires an open connection to

the database. It is faster for reading large amounts of data in a streaming manner.

• Example: Use DataReader when fetching records to display in a report or grid

in a single-pass, forward-only manner.
