What MySQL property is used to create a surrogate key in MySQL?
Answer: C
Correct answer: AUTO_INCREMENT
Declaring an integer column AUTO_INCREMENT makes MySQL assign the next value on each insert, which is the standard way of creating a surrogate key. Oracle of the same era had no such property and needed a sequence with a trigger instead - a difference worth remembering when porting a schema.
