A table in database is a data object used to store data. Tables have the following features:

* Data is stored in a table with a structure of rows and columns.

* Columns must be pre-defined with names, types and constrains.

* A table object may have other associated data objects like, constrains, triggers, indexes, and statistics.

For example, a table called Address may have columns defined to store different elements of an address like, street number, city, country, postal code, etc.
