Database Design for Course Management

This assignment presents a detailed database design for a course management system. It includes three tables: 'Courses', 'MembersOFclass', and 'classes'. The 'Courses' table stores information about each course, such as name, description, maximum student capacity, and prerequisite courses. The 'MembersOFclass' table tracks the enrollment of members in specific classes, linking member IDs and class IDs. Finally, the 'classes' table provides details for individual classes, including the course ID, date and time, room number, and notes.

Normalization
The Normalization is an idea of decreasing repetition and also reliance of information to
sorted out a database outline. In other word, it can be characterizing as part huge connection into
littler connection and connection utilizing their useful reliance.
Be that as it may, here a few substances are in first ordinary shape and furthermore have
single segment of essential key. As per the TopFit rec center foundation ponder the above
substance relationship chart is made, where all tables are deteriorated up to third typical frame.

At initial a part is related with the class and staffs, thusly if part, class and staffs are
speaking to in one connection. This connection can be characterizing as first typical frame,
however when it isolated in three distinct relations and every one of them contains one essential
key than it could be a second ordinary shape. After that assessing the practical reliance among
these relations, if any transitive reliance found than that connection is disintegrated in third
ordinary frame.
