A method of representing data using following general rules so that it is "easy" to process:
- Store data in tables.
- Each table has rows.
- Each row in a table has the same fields (ie ID, Name, Age, SS#, Friend1_ID, Friend2_ID)
- A row's field (ie Friend1_ID) could reference another row of same or different table.
