Table Creation and Data Manipulation Commands — Question 2

A non-key attribute, whose values are derived from the primary key of some other table, is known as foreign key in its current table. Defining a foreign key in a table involves specifying the relationship between the tables and setting up rules for data integrity. When two tables are related by a common column or set of columns, the related column(s) in the parent table (or primary table) should be either declared as a primary key or unique key. Meanwhile, the related column(s) in the child table (or related table) should have a foreign key constraint referencing the primary or unique key in the parent table.
