I'm pretty sure normalization won't be a problem in my context and with my background. My requirement is simple, and the design straight-forward.

Many thanks for your response.

You'd recommend MySQL over SQLite? The latter comes "baked in" to Python, so no installation required, and I was planning to go with that as a starter to avoid any problems with installation and configuring.

It would be easy to write a command line for that so I could then experiment. Thoughts?

And any suggestions for guide to SQL syntax and semantics?

Many thanks.

I have a similar question which I asked over here:

That hasn't got many upvotes, so probably very few will see it, but it seems related enough to mention here and ask for advice.

Thanks in advance.
