Synthetic Primary Key (Sequence Number) vs Natural Primary Key

indra budianthoMay 3 2012 — edited May 4 2012
I am wondering whether Sequence Number is better than Primary Key. I found some tables use sequence number only, some tables use primary key only, and some tables use both. Can anybody give me a clue, which one should i use when creating a table? tx , in advance.
