inconsisteny and disk space usage.

a table is said to be in first normal form when each
cell of the table prcisely contain one value.
Second Normal Form (2NF):
a table is said to be in second normal form when it is
in 1NF and every attribute in the row in functionaly
dependent upon whole key and not just a part of key.
Third Normal Form (3NF):
