True or False: Given a database with table named test that has columns named 'id' and 'value' This is a valid SQL statement:
SELECT * FROM test WHERE value = NULL;
In MySql, this create table statement is not valid. Why?
CREATE TABLE test ( a INTEGER AUTO_INCREMENT, b TEXT DEFAULT 'nothing', c TEXT NOT NULL );
The semicolon is unnecessary.
The AUTO_INCREMENT keyword is misused.
There is a comma missing after the last column declaration.
The DEFAULT keyword is misused.
In MySQL, which of these statements will successfully create a table named simpleTest with an id field set as an auto-increment integer with a primary key constraint?

Neither A nor B is correct.
Both A and B are correct.
