Answer from AI
Main types of tables in databases:
- Main (core) tables — store primary data, for example, a users table.
- Auxiliary (reference) tables — contain reference information, such as a list of countries or statuses.
- Join tables — used to implement many-to-many relationships between tables.
- Temporary tables — created for intermediate data storage during a session or query.
- History (archival) tables — store historical data or record versions.
The types of tables may vary depending on the DBMS and application architecture.
