Problem Statement

Create a table to store addresses. You may assume that all the addresses to be stored will be located in the USA.   As such, you will need (in addition to a field holding a unique identifier) a field holding the street address, a field holding the city, a field holding the state code, and a field holding the zipcode.   Choose appropriate types for each field. For non-database languages, show how you would open a connection to a database (your choice of which) and create an address table in it. You should follow the existing models here for how you would structure the table.

Let's start with the solution:

CREATE SEQUENCE seq_address_pk START BY 100 INCREMENT BY 1
/
CREATE TABLE address (
    addrID   NUMBER DEFAULT seq_address_pk.nextval,
    street   VARCHAR2( 50 ) NOT NULL,
    city     VARCHAR2( 25 ) NOT NULL,
    state    VARCHAR2( 2 ) NOT NULL,
    zip      VARCHAR2( 20 ) NOT NULL,
    CONSTRAINT address_pk1 PRIMARY KEY ( addrID )
)
