Objectives
▪ Understand the SQL and its parts

▪ Download the SQL installer
▪ Apply the installation process
▪ Apply simple query in the MySQL console
Getting Started
▪ SQL stands for the structured query language.

▪ SQL is the standardized language used to access
the database.
▪ ANSI/SQL defines the SQL standard. The current
version of SQL is SQL:2016. Whenever we refer to
the SQL standard, we mean the current SQL
version.

SQL contains three parts
1. Data definition language includes statements that help

you define the database and its objects, e.g.,
tables, views, triggers, stored procedures, etc.
2. Data manipulation language contains statements that
allow you to update and query data.
3. Data control language allows you to grant the
permissions to a user to access specific data in the
database. 4
Trivia
▪ My is the daughter’s name of the MySQL’s co-

founder, Monty Widenius.
▪ The name of MySQL is the combination of My and
SQL, MySQL.
▪ The official way to pronounce MySQL is My Ess
Que Ell, not My Sequel.
5
▪ MySQL is a database management system that allows you to manage relational
databases. It is open source software backed by Oracle. It means you can use
MySQL without paying a dime. Also, if you want, you can change its source
code to suit your needs.
▪ Even though MySQL is open source software, you can buy a commercial license
version from Oracle to get premium support services.
▪ MySQL is pretty easy to master in comparison with other database software
like Oracle Database, or Microsoft SQL Server.
▪ MySQL can run on various platforms UNIX, Linux, Windows, etc. You can install
it on a server or even in a desktop. Besides, MySQL is reliable, scalable, and
6
fast.

Connect to MySQL Using mysql command-line client
mysql is a command-line client program that allows you to interact with MySQL in the interactive and
non-interactive mode.
The mysql command-line client is typically located in the bin directory of the MySQL’s installation
folder.

34
Entering Queries
A query normally consists of an SQL statement followed by a semicolon.
When you issue a query, mysql sends it to the server for execution and displays
the results, then prints another mysql>prompt to indicate that it is ready for
another query.
Mysql displays query output in tabular form (rows and columns).

The first row contains labels for the columns. The rows following are the query
results. Normally, column labels are the names of the columns you fetch from
database tables.
Mysql shows how many rows were returned and how long the query took to
execute, which gives you a rough idea of server performance.
A query need not be given all on a single line, so lengthy queries that
require several lines are not a problem.
Mysql determines where your statement ends by
looking for the terminating semicolon, not by
looking for the end of the input line.
Notice how the prompt changes from mysql>to - > after you
enter the first line of a multiple-line query. This is how mysql
indicates that it has not yet seen a complete statement and is
waiting for the rest.
If you decide you do not want to execute a query that
you are in the process of entering, cancel it by typing \c:
Here, too, notice the prompt. It switches back to

mysql>after you type \c, providing feedback to indicate
that mysql is ready for a new query
