Difference between primary key constraint and not null

constraint
Primary Key:

The PRIMARY KEY constraint uniquely identifies each record in a


database table.

Primary keys must contain unique values.

A primary key column cannot contain NULL values.

Most tables should have a primary key, and each table can have only
ONE primary key.

NOT NULL constraint:

The NOT NULL constraint enforces a column to NOT accept NULL


values.

The NOT NULL constraint enforces a field to always contain a value.


This means that you cannot insert a new record, or update a record
without adding a value to this field.

The following SQL enforces the "PId" column and the "Name" column
to not accept NULL values:

CREATE TABLE Persons


(
PId int NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
Name varchar(255) NOT NULL,

PID Name
1 AAAA
2 AAAA
3 BBBB
