normalization is a design technique for structuring relational database tables. Tables can be normalized to a greater or lesser degree. Database theory describes a table's degree of normalization in terms of normal forms.The most common normal forms, from least normalized to most normalized, are as follows:

First normal form (1NF)

Second normal form (2NF)

Third normal form (3NF)

Boyce-Codd normal form (BCNF)

Fourth normal form (4NF)

Fifth normal form (5NF)

Domain/key normal form (DKNF)

Sixth normal form (6NF)
