parent-child index relationship

A parent-child index relationship is a hierarchical data structure used in databases to establish a connection between two tables. In this relationship, one table acts as the parent, and the other table is considered the child. The parent table contains a primary key, which uniquely identifies each record, while the child table includes a foreign key that references the parent's primary key. This relationship allows for efficient organization and retrieval of related data between the tables.
