what is the difference between primary key & foreign key? Answer primary key is used to identify a row and it doesnot allow #6 null values. It avoids duplication of rows. whereas foreign key refers to a column or combination of columns included in the defenition of referential integrity. what is the difference between primary key & foreign key? Answer In the context of relational databases, a foreign key is a #7 referential constraint between two tables.[1] The foreign key identifies a column or a set of columns in one (referencing) table that refers to a column or set of columns in another (referenced) table. The columns in the referencing table must form a primary key or unique key. what is the difference between primary key & foreign key?

what is the difference between primary key & foreign key? Answer Primary is unique one. Each table has only one primary # 17 key. But not allow null values. Foreign key is opposite of primary. It is reference of primary key from another table. It allow Null value. Each table can have more than one foreign key. Foreign key is used to link one to another table.

what is the difference between primary key & foreign key? Answer primary key of a relation is a candidate key that has # 18 been designated as the main key.It doesn't has null value. A foreign key is an attribute in a relation that can be used as a key to another relation.It allow null and duplicate value.

what is the difference between primary key & foreign key? Answer Primary key is a keyword. # 23 It should not have null value and duplicate value. We can have only one primary key in a table and the value should be unique. Foreign key is a keyword. It can have null value and duplicate value. We can have more than one foreign key for a table and this

froeign key table references the primary key table what is the difference between primary key & foreign key? Answer A primary key is an combination of attributes that # 25 uniquely identifies each row in a relation. A primary key is designated by underlining the attribute name. The primary key of an entity set allows us to distinguish among the various entities of the set. A foreign key is an attribute in a relation of database that serves as the primary key of another relation in the same database.

Foreign Key A foreign key is a field (or fields) that points to the primary key of another table. The purpose of the foreign key is to ensure referential integrity of the data. In other words, only values that are supposed to appear in the database are permitted. For example, say we have two tables, a CUSTOMER table that includes all customer data, and an ORDERS table that includes all customer orders. The constraint here is that all orders must be associated with a customer that is already in the CUSTOMER table. In this case, we will place a foreign key on the ORDERS table and have it relate to the primary key of the CUSTOMER table. This way, we can ensure that all orders in the ORDERS table are related to a customer in the CUSTOMER table. In other words, the ORDERS table cannot contain information on a customer that is not in the CUSTOMER table. primary key The primary key of a relational table uniquely identifies each record in the table. It can either be a normal attribute that is guaranteed to be unique (such as Social Security Number in a table with no more than one record per person) or it can be generated by the DBMS (such as a globally unique identifier, or GUID, in Microsoft SQL Server). Primary keys may consist of a single attribute or multiple attributes in combination.

Candidate Key
-- A candidate key is a combination of attributes that can be uniquely used to identify a database record without any extraneous data. Each table may have one or more candidate keys. One of these candidate keys is selected as the table primary key. What is Normalization? Normalization is the process of efficiently organizing data in a database. There are two goals of the normalization process: eliminating redundant data (for example, storing the same data in more than one table) and ensuring data dependencies make sense (only storing related data in a table). Both of these are worthy goals as they reduce the amount of space a database consumes and ensure that data is logically stored.
