what is going on everybody my name is

0:02
Alex Freiburg and today we're gonna be
0:03
walking through K statements and sequel
0:05
a case statement allows you to specify
0:08
condition and then it also allows you to
0:10
specify what you want returned when that
0:13
condition is met so we're gonna be using
0:15
this employee demographics table that
0:17
we're looking at right here we're gonna
0:19
walk through the syntax of how to create
0:20
a cait statement and then we're actually
0:22
going to some use cases at the end so
0:25
let's start off by specifying what
0:26
columns we want let's say we want the
0:29
first name we want the last name and we
0:34
want the age now let's just get that
0:37
information now for our case statement
0:40
we're gonna be using this age column so
0:42
we actually want the age to be in there
0:43
so let's specify where age is not know
0:48
and run that so now we have a pretty
0:51
good look at it and let's just order by
0:55
age just to clean it up a little bit so
1:00
now I'll start building our case
1:01
statement so we're gonna say case and
1:03
then we want to say when now we need to
1:07
specify what condition we want to look
1:09
for so let's do when age is greater than
1:13
30 then then what do we want to be
1:16
returned so we want to return that they
1:19
are old else so that means anything that
1:23
is not over the age of 30 we want to
1:25
return young and then you need to
1:30
specify that you were done with the case
1:31
statement and so you will write and at
1:34
the very bottom so this is our first
1:36
case statement let's run it and see what
1:38
we get so as you can see a new column
1:40
was created and if the person is over
1:43
the age of 30 so 31 and up they're given
1:46
old and if they're not over the age of
1:48
30 they are given young now we can do as
1:52
many win and then statements as we want
1:54
so if we want to we can also do when the
1:57
age is between 27 and 30 then we want to
2:05
return young and anyone else where they
2:09
call a
2:11
so now we have Ryan Howard as the baby
2:15
anyone between 27 and 30 they're
2:18
considered a young and anyone over the
2:21
age of 30 is old now something to note
2:24
is that the very first condition that is
2:26
met is going to be returned so if there
2:29
are multiple conditions that meet the
2:31
criteria only the very first one is
2:33
going to be returned and let's
2:34
demonstrate that real quick so if the
2:37
age equals 38 then return Stanley
2:43
because that is Stanley and let's
2:47
execute this real quick
2:48
so right here I'm specifying that if
2:51
it's 38 it should return Stanley but he
2:53
is right here and it still says old and
2:56
that's because this condition was
2:57
already met now if we were to put this
3:00
right here it should work correctly and
3:06
let's try it out so now because this
3:08
condition is met first it is going to
3:10
return Stanley down here so now let's
3:13
get into our first use case let's start
3:15
off by copying this and then commenting
3:19
it out I only did that because I don't
3:22
want to rewrite it cuz I'm lazy let's
3:26
get rid of that and let's look at this
3:28
real quick
3:28
we are gonna join on another table that
3:30
we have really fast and that's gonna be
3:34
sequel tutorial if you watch my other
3:36
videos then you know this table and
3:40
we're gonna do that on employee
3:42
demographics employee ID is equal to an
3:48
employee salaried employee ID okay so
3:54
let's just look at everything in these
3:56
tables really quick now we are gonna be
3:57
focusing on the job title in the salary
3:59
column but we want their first name and
4:01
last name as well so let's start
4:02
building that out let's do first name
4:06
last name job title and salary and let's
4:12
look at this really quick so now we have
4:14
our employees and here is the situation
4:16
we had a fantastic year this year
4:19
selling paper and corporate has allowed
4:20
Michael Scott to give out a yearly raise
4:23
to every sing
4:23
employee but not every employee is gonna
4:26
get the same raise because our salesmen
4:29
are genuinely the people who made us our
4:31
money and they're gonna get the biggest
4:33
raises well other people really aren't
4:35
gonna get into that big of a raise so
4:37
now let's go through and create a case
4:38
statement to calculate what their salary
4:40
will be after they get their raise so
4:43
let's start off by saying case and when
4:47
and we want it to say when job titles
4:51
equal to salesmen so when they are a
4:54
Salesman what do we want to happen so
4:57
this is where the calculation occurs so
4:59
we're gonna take their salary and then
5:02
we're gonna add their salary times how
5:06
much their raise is gonna be so the
5:08
salesman did really really well and we
5:10
want to give them a 10% raise this year
5:12
now when their job title is equal to
5:19
accountant then and we'll take their
5:23
salary we will give them let's give them
5:29
a 5% raise it's still very generous
5:32
there we go and when the job title is
5:40
equal to H R then it's gonna be the
5:45
salary plus the salary times and then
5:52
we're gonna do one all right and else
5:57
we're just gonna do salary plus salary
6:03
oops
6:04
let's do parentheses times and let's
6:08
just give everyone else a 3% raise and
6:12
then we'll write end now let's take a
6:15
look at our results so here's what we
6:18
have so far we have our first name or
6:20
last name our job title in our salary
6:22
that is our current salary and then
6:25
we're gonna have our salary after we get
6:27
our raise so I'm going to actually write
6:29
that up here let's do as salary after
6:33
raise and let's execute that
6:37
so let's look at these raises really
6:39
quick so we have 45,000 and since he is
6:42
a Salesman he gets a 10% raise which is
6:45
a raise of $4,500
6:47
so 45,000 plus 4,500 is 49 thousand five
6:51
hundred dollars and as you can see down
6:53
here we have HR who is making fifty
6:55
thousand dollars is now he is making
6:57
fifty thousand dollars and five cents so
6:59
everybody got a raise so that is our
7:03
case statement I hope that was helpful I
7:04
find myself using the case statement a
7:06
lot when I'm wanting to categorize
7:07
things or label things and that's kind
7:10
of what we did in the first example and
7:12
you can even do calculations like we did
7:14
in this use case so I hope that was
7:16
helpful thank you guys so much for
7:18
watching I really appreciate it
