waht is referencial integrity?

Answer Posted / arijitnit

Referential integrity in a relational database is
consistency between coupled tables. Referential integrity is
usually enforced by the combination of a primary key or
candidate key (alternate key) and a foreign key. For
referential integrity to hold, any field in a table that is
declared a foreign key can contain only values from a parent
table's primary key or a candidate key. For instance,
deleting a record that contains a value referred to by a
foreign key in another table would break referential
integrity. The relational database management system (RDBMS)
enforces referential integrity, normally either by deleting
the foreign key rows as well to maintain integrity, or by
returning an error and not performing the delete. Which
method is used would be defined by the definition of the
referential integrity constraint.
