Creating Tables with AUTO_INCREMENT and NOT NULL column
The attribute AUTO_INCREMENT for the column id has the effect that with each new record the appropriate value for id is automatically inserted.
The attribute NOT NULL ensures that actual values must be placed in both columns. It is not permitted to store the data record NULL or not to insert any value at all. Thus this attribute prevents invalid data records from being stored.
PRIMARY KEY (id) has the effect that the column id is used to identify the data records.

-> id INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
-> choice TINYINT NOT NULL,

The CHARACTER SET attribute specifies the character set, and the COLLATE attribute specifies a collation for the character set
The ASCII attribute is shorthand for CHARACTER SET latin1.
The UNICODE attribute is shorthand for CHARACTER SET ucs2.
The BINARY attribute is shorthand for specifying the binary collation of the column character set.
The CHAR BYTE data type is an alias for the BINARY data type. This is a compatibility feature.
