I'm new to Salesforce - currently taking a preparation Admin's course - and I'de like to ask a question in order to clarify a doubt regarding the definition of RECORD & OBJECT.
The question is: does a record mean the same as a tuple in Salesforce?
Note: I have a background in Database and the concept of RECORD is the same as TUPLE - a specifi field in a database column.
Can any anyone help me, please?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Jeova,
In simple terms, an object is a tab of an excel file. An excel file consists of Rows and columns.
Imaging fields as columns and records are rows.
As a tab in excel can have relations with other tabs of excel, Objects in salesforce could link to different objects.
Do let me know if it helped.
