Solution

The update operation you mentioned will not be allowed on the supplier table, s. The reason is that the supplier number 'sno' is a foreign key in the shipment table 'sp'. The 'ON UPDATE CASCADE' constraint means that if a supplier number 'sno' in the supplier table 's' is updated, then the corresponding supplier number 'sno' in the shipment table 'sp' should also be updated to reflect this change.

However, the update operation you mentioned is trying to change the supplier number 'sno' from 'S1' to 'S20'. If there are any rows in the shipment table 'sp' where the supplier number 'sno' is 'S1', then these would also need to be updated to 'S20'. If 'S20' already exists in the supplier table, then this would result in a duplicate key error, as 'sno' is a primary key in the supplier table 's' and primary keys must be unique.

Therefore, unless 'S20' does not already exist in the supplier table 's', the update operation you mentioned will not be allowed.
