Create table Employee ( Employee_Id varchar2(8) Constraint emp_id_pk primary key, FirstName var..

Answer / durgarao k

There are two ways in specifying constraints
Table level and Column level
In your question you specified Foreign key constraint as column level constraint.so, at that time you write as
Create table Employee
(
Employee_Id varchar2(8) Constraint emp_id_pk primary key,
FirstName varchar2(50),
LastName varchar2(50),
DeptID Number(5)
Constraint dept_id_fk
References Department(DeptId)
)
if you want to specify Foreign key constraint at table level
you just do as
Create table Employee
(
Employee_Id varchar2(8) Constraint emp_id_pk primary key,
FirstName varchar2(50),
LastName varchar2(50),
DeptID Number(5),
Constraint dept_id_fk Foreign Key(DeptId)
References Department(DeptId)
)
