Unique is a constraint,which doesn't allow the duplicate
values and allow only one null value.We can create more
number of unique constraint in single table.

Not Null constraint,which doesn't allow the Null values and
allow the duplicate values.

We can create one primary key for a table,Which doesn't
allow the duplicate and null values,and used for make a
foreign key relation.we can't do this process using above
