CREATE TABLE `my_contacts` (
`last_name` varchar(30) DEFAULT NULL,
`first_name` varchar(20) DEFAULT NULL,
`email` varchar(50) DEFAULT NULL,
`birthday` date DEFAULT NULL,
`profession` varchar(50) DEFAULT NULL

CREATE TABLE my_contacts (


contact_id INT NOT NULL,
last_name varchar(30) DEFAULT NULL,
first_name varchar(20) DEFAULT NULL,
email varchar(50) DEFAULT NULL,
birthday date DEFAULT NULL,
profession varchar(50) DEFAULT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY(contact_id));

contact_id INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT :- it starts the value from 1 and
