Primery Key:- A column or set of columns that uniquely
identify all the rows in a table. Primary keys do not allow
null values. No two rows can have the same primary key
value; therefore, a primary key value always uniquely
identifies a single row.
Unique Key:- Unique Keys are used to uniquely identify each
row in an Oracle table. There can be one and only one row
for each unique key value. no value repeate in the other
rows of the same table.

Primary Key:- Primary Key is an attribute or a set of
attributes in a table which uniquely identifies a record
(row) in a table and no two records (rows) in the table can
have the same values for all the columns comprising the
primary key.
Unique Key:- A unique key is a key which stores unique
values (no duplicates) for that particular column.

cannot store any null value.
2. A primary key can be references to another table as a
Foreign Key.
