Description

SQL does not eliminate duplicates implicitly. It allows to enter duplicate values on columns other than candidate key or if did not specified any keys. If the user wants to eliminate duplicate records, he has to use DISTINCT keyword in the query.

Databases, therefore, can have duplicate entries. The problem deals with identifying and removing duplicates from a database.

Parameters

No parameters found.
