Two column as a primary keys in mysql?

Question

Today I found out you can have a primary key using two columns (tsql). The PK must be unique but both columns do not (the combo must be unique).

You are over thinking this:

• your primary key is the two columns a, b

Therefore a and b together must be unique.

Individual value of a and b are irrelevant.
