Example

I've added some text about why the candidate key is what it is. This is because we frequently get talk-page comments where beginners express confusion about the concept of a candidate key, which in turn leads to confusion about the examples in the NF articles. There is of course always a link to the "candidate key" article, but the candidate key article at present is too theoretical for beginners to understand. --Nabav (talk) 09:17, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
