EXPLANATION:
I am going to call this table the "Order Table" I also need to make sure that this table contains a primary Key, in this particular
table I am going to make the “OrderID” and “DonutID” the Primary Key (composite key), the reason I chose to use OrderID
and DonutID as the primary key is because Order ID or DonutID by themselves do not guarantee Uniqueness but when
combined uniqueness is achieved. I am going to separate city, state and zip in order to make the data atomic with no repeating
groups. I am also going to get rid oḟ Customer since there is already a Customer ID ḟield and customer will most likely be a
table oḟ its own. I leḟt the Donut name and description empty because my table was starting to be too big to ḟit it in this
document.

EXPLANATION
In Second Ḟorm I need to have ḟulḟilled 1NḞ and ensure that No ḟunctional dependencies exist, in order to accomplish that I
need to Separate Donut ID and Order ID and create their own tables and since Quantity can cause a many to many relationship
To resolve that issue I will create the OrderLineItem table in which OrderID and DonutID will be the PK, however since
OrderID and Donut ID are the primary keys ḟor their own respective tables they are also Ḟoreign keys in the OrderLineItem
table and thereḟore reḟerence their own table as ḞK in orderlineitem table . In the Order Table I have chosen to use Order ID as
the Primary Key since the Order table most likely will contain order related inḟormation like customer ID Order ID the Date
and the notes.

EXPLANATION:
There was no need to have all the customer inḟormation as it is redundant so I removed it. I also created two more tables one to house the
inḟormation that does not need to be in Order table like Donut ID, Quantity, Donut name, Description or unit prize that inḟormation needs
to go in to separate tables. The quantity oḟ each line item is deḟined with the combination oḟ the Order ID and the Donut ID, so that
inḟormation was separated into the Order Line Item table. The Name, Description, and Unit Price oḟ each donut can be deḟined by a Donut
ID, so that was separated into a table to reduce redundancy. A customer will most likely have more than one order iḟ we were to leave the
customer ID in the Order table the customer inḟormation will be repeated ḟor each oḟ their orders. To avoid this the customer table was
created that way the customer inḟormation is only added once. In Order Table the PK is OrderID and the ḞK is CustomerID. In Order Line
Item table the OrderID and DonutID are the PK and also ḞKs. In Donut table the DonutID is the PK and in the customer table the
CustomerID is the PK.
