instructor in the Biology department.
Select distinct T.name
from instructor as T, instructor as S
where T.salary> S.salary and S.dept_name = 'Biology';
Other Resolution

from instructor
where salary > some(select salary
from instructor
where dept_name = 'Biology');

Insert into coursevalues ('CS-437', 'Database Systems', 'Comp. Sci.', 4);

Insert into course (course_id , title , dept_name ,credits )values ('CS -437',

'Database Systems', 'Comp. Sci.', 4);

10) Add a new tuple to student with tot_creds set to null


Insert into studentvalues ('3003', 'Green', 'Finance', null);

11) Add all instructors to the student relation with tot_creds set to 0
Insert into student select ID, name, dept_name, 0 from instructor

where salary > 100000;

Update instructorset salary = salary * 1.05

where salary <= 100000;
