Answer / andsens
Fields in UNIQUE CONSTRAINTs can be NULL. They cannot with PRIMARY KEYs.
You can define more than one UNIQUE KEY in a table.
Because of this, the behaviour of UNIQUE CONSTRAINTs
is very different from PRIMARY KEY constraints.
As long as one of the fields in a UNIQUE CONSTRAINT is NULL
the constraint itself does not apply and you can set the other fields
to whatever you want without getting an error.

PRIMARY KEY IS A FIELD WHICH IS USED TO IDENTIFY THE TABLE

REPRESENT THE NUMERIC FIELDS WHICH DOESNT CHANGE.
THE GROUP OF NUMERIC FIELDS IS THE UNIQUE KEY.
