    Normalization is the process of organizing data in a database to reduce redundancy and improve integrity by decomposing tables into smaller tables and defining relationships between them. There are different types of normalization including first normal form which structures each table so that values are atomic and records are unique, second normal form which eliminates non-key attributes that are partially dependent on the primary key, and third normal form which removes indirect dependencies by ensuring non-key attributes do not depend on other non-key attributes through the primary key. Normalization helps design efficient and reliable databases.

    Normalization is the process of organizing the data in

    the database to minimize redundancy and improve data


    integrity. Normalization involves decomposing a table
    into smaller tables and defining relationships among
    them. There are different types of normalization, each
    with its own set of rules and criteria. Some of the
    common types are:

    - *First Normal Form (1NF)*: A table is in 1NF if it


    contains only atomic values, meaning that each cell has
    a single value and not a list or a set of values. It also
    requires that each record is unique and has a primary
    key¹.

    - *Second Normal Form (2NF)*: A table is in 2NF if it is in


    1NF and all the non-key attributes are fully functionally
    dependent on the primary key, meaning that they
    depend on the whole key and not on a subset of it. This
    eliminates partial dependencies².

    - *Third Normal Form (3NF)*: A table is in 3NF if it is in


    2NF and there are no transitive dependencies, meaning
    that no non-key attribute depends on another non-key
    attribute through the primary key. This eliminates
    indirect dependencies².

    These are some of the types of normalization in DBMS.


    Normalization helps to design efficient and reliable
    databases that avoid data anomalies and
    inconsistencies.
