A functional dependency is a relationship between or among attributes.

  • A.True
  • B.False

Answer: A

Correct answer: True

A functional dependency relates attributes within a relation: given a value of the determinant, the value of the dependent attribute is fixed. It is not a relationship between tables - that is what a foreign key expresses - nor between rows. Functional dependencies are the language in which every normal form is defined.
