DOMAIN | It is a set of values from which an attribute can take a value in each row. |
DEGREE | The number of attributes in a relation is called the Degree of the relation. |
CARDINALITY | The number of tuples in a relation is called the Cardinality of the relation. |
Candidate Key | A super key with no redundant attribute is known as candidate key. |
Primary key | unique identification of tuples. |
Foreign key | Primary key of another table |
Composite Primary key | If no single attribute in a relation is able to uniquely distinguish the tuples, then more than one attribute are taken together as primary key. Such primary key consisting of more than one attribute is called Composite Primary key. |
