Answers for "use of primary key in sql"

sql primary key

/* A primary key allows each record in a table to be uniquely identified. There can only be one
primary key per table, and you can assign this constraint to any single or combination of columns.
However, this means each value within this column(s) must be unique.
Typically in a table, the primary key is an ID column, and is usually paired with the AUTO_
INCREMENT keyword. This means the value increases automatically as new records are created. */
CREATE TABLE stats(id INT NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY, name TEXT)

-- NOTE: this is for SQL-Oracle specifically

SELECT cols.table_name, cols.column_name, cols.position, cons.status, cons.owner
FROM all_constraints cons, all_cons_columns cols
WHERE cols.table_name = 'CUSTOMERS' 
AND cons.constraint_type = 'P'
AND cons.constraint_name = cols.constraint_name
AND cons.owner = cols.owner;

-- syntax:
SELECT cols.table_name, cols.column_name, cols.position, cons.status, cons.owner
FROM all_constraints cons, all_cons_columns cols
WHERE cols.table_name = '<table-name>' -- Replace <table-name> with your table-name
AND cons.constraint_type = 'P'
AND cons.constraint_name = cols.constraint_name
AND cons.owner = cols.owner;
