    normalizing question..help plzzz

    My instructer has given me a backward question to answer!!

    how can we describe the process of normalization that led to this table to 4NF?

    wardName ------ staffName---- patientName
    pediatrics------------ Kim------------- Claire
    pediatrics------------ Kim------------- Brian
    pediatrics------------ Emily---------- Claire
    pediatrics------------ Emily---------- Brian


    the staffName and the patientName are primary keys for thier tables Staff and Patient.. also, there is no relationship between staff and patient..


    plzzzzzzz help
