Third normal form
normalizing a database design to reduce the duplication of data and ensure referential integrity From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Third normal form is a property of a relational model, specifically tables that is a criterion of database normalization.
The first criterion of being third normal form is that the table be second normal form.
Within a table that is in third normal form, the data in each column in each row are dependent only on columns that are part of the primary key. A primary key is one or more columns in a row that is used to identify and index that row of the table. Columns that are not related to any column in the primary key are removed.
