• Ifthetablenameis“COURSE”,namethePrimaryKeycolumn“CourseId”,etc.• “Always”useInteger andIdentity(1,1) forPrimaryKeys.UseUNIQUE

StructuredQueryLanguageSQL


WhatisSQL?• SQL– StructuredQueryLanguage• SQLisastandardlanguageforaccessingdatabases– andmanipulatedata

• SQLisnotcasesensitive

select SchoolId, Name from SCHOOL

ColumnsTable

Example:

Weusethe“SELECT”commandinordertogetdatafromtheDatabase

Theory

SQL– StructuredQueryLanguage

• insert into STUDENT (Name , Number, SchoolId)values ('John Smith', '100005', 1)

• select SchoolId, Name from SCHOOL

• select * from SCHOOL where SchoolId > 100

• update STUDENT set Name='John Wayne' where StudentId=2

• delete from STUDENT where SchoolId=3

QueryExamples:

Wehave4differentQueryTypes:INSERT,SELECT,UPDATEand DELETE

Theory

ImportantSQLCommands• SELECT- extractsdatafromadatabase• UPDATE- updatesdatainadatabase• DELETE- deletesdatafromadatabase• INSERTINTO- insertsnewdataintoadatabase

• CREATEDATABASE- createsanewdatabase• ALTERDATABASE- modifiesadatabase• CREATETABLE- createsanewtable• ALTERTABLE- modifiesatable• DROPTABLE- deletesatable• CREATEINDEX- createsanindex(searchkey)• DROPINDEX- deletesanindex
