The Student Table does not violate INF rules because the lists of values are stored in a separate column. Typically, the data stored in the Student Table are atomic because it is easy to retrieve information from the table, and it is easy to create report from the table. While INF prohibits the presence of repetition, the Student Table satisfies the requirements of the INF because the table stores single item columns in separate column. Second Normal Form (2NF)

A table is in Second Normal Form (2NF) if it has satisfied the requirement of INF and if its non-key column is fully dependent on the entire primary key. Similarly, "tables should only store data related to one entity and the entity should be described by its primary key. In addition a table is said to be in Third Normal Form (3NF), if it is in 2NF and if all non-key columns are mutually independent." (Litwin, Getz & Gunderloy, 2002 P. 13)." Based on the rules of the 2NF and 3NF, it is critical to redesign a new table to satisfy the Second Normal Form and Third Normal Form requirements. The new tables are created to meet normalization standard and the tables are created using SQL in DBMS.

Thus, the above table has satisfied requirements of First Normal Form (1NF) and Second Normal Form (2NF). However, they have not yet satisfied the Third Normal Form (3NF). To ensure that all the tables meet the normalization process and satisfy the 3NF, the table must be mutually independent. (Johnson, 2011).

The paper provides the SQL statement and tables that meet 3NF

First, I have learned the techniques of creating database using SQL statement from DB2 Express environment. The experience has improved my skills on the method to design a database without making mistakes. Moreover, I have learned the technique of normalizing a database. The normalization is very critical in the database design because it enhances the overview of the entire database and the functions of particular table in the database. With integration of normalization in the database, it will be easy to retrieve data from the database and it will be easy to generate report from the database. Moreover, I have learned the technique of using SQL statement to retrieve, update and delete data from the database. The experience I have gained from this assignment has enhanced my greater understanding on the database design and management.
