Q3 Attempt any four from following

a. Describe SELECT command in SQL:

The SELECT command is used to retrieve data from a database. It allows you to specify the

columns you want to see and the conditions for filtering the records.

Syntax:

SELECT column1, column2 FROM table_name WHERE condition;

Example:

SELECT name, age FROM students WHERE age > 18;

b. Write a note on clauses:

In SQL, clauses are components of queries that modify or specify actions. Common clauses include:

- WHERE: filters records.

- GROUP BY: groups rows sharing a property.

- ORDER BY: sorts the result set.

- HAVING: filters groups according to a condition.

Each clause plays a specific role in forming powerful queries.

c. Explain SQL String functions:

SQL String functions are used to perform operations on string data types like CHAR and VARCHAR.

Common functions:

- UPPER(string): Converts string to uppercase.

- LOWER(string): Converts string to lowercase.

- CONCAT(string1, string2): Combines two strings.

- SUBSTRING(string, start, length): Extracts part of a string.

- LENGTH(string): Returns the length of a string.


d. Explain SQL joins:

SQL Joins are used to combine rows from two or more tables based on a related column. Types of

joins:

- INNER JOIN: Returns records with matching values.

- LEFT JOIN: Returns all records from the left table and matched records from the right table.

- RIGHT JOIN: Returns all records from the right table and matched records from the left table.

- FULL JOIN: Returns all records when there is a match in either left or right table.
