 Normalization: 1NF, 2NF, 3NF, BCNF, and 4NF

Unit 3: SQL and Database Querying

 Introduction to SQL: Basic structure, data types, DDL, DML, and DCL
 Data Query Language: SELECT statement, WHERE clause, joins, and subqueries
 Data Manipulation Language: INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE statements

Unit 4: Transaction Management and Concurrency Control
