null values. It avoids duplication of rows.

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?
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.
