table_name	Table containing the auto_increment attribute.

data_type	Data type of the auto_increment column, for example tinyint.
column_type	Data type of the auto_increment column, plus additional information for example tinyint(3) unsigned.
is_signed	1 if the column is signed,0 if not.
is_unsigned	1 if the column is unsigned,0 if it is.
max_value	Maximum possible value for the column, for example 255 for an unsigned tinyint.
auto_increment	Current auto_increment value for the column.

    name CHAR(30) NOT NULL,
    PRIMARY KEY (id)
);

 INSERT INTO animals (name) VALUES

    ('fox'),('whale'),('ostrich');
