SQL - DML • Based on a command (CRUD), data, criteria: • Commands: select, insert, update, delete • Data: lists the table and views to be utilized • Criteria: limits the subset of the data • Examples: • Select * from customer • retrieves all rows and columns from a customer table • Select ID, name from customer where customer id = 15 • retrieves customer 15’s id and name • Select distinct order id from order line • Retrieve an unduplicated list of orders

  3. SQL - Criteria • Where clause • Limit the subset of data accessed • Select * from faculty where course id = ‘isom445’ • Join tables • Select student name from student, enrollment where course id = ‘isom445’ and student.student ID = enrollment.student id

  4. SQL Operators • Multiple criteria may be linked with and / or: • Where customer id = 15 and product color = red • Where customer id = 15 or product color = red • Criteria may use and & or: • Where customer id = 15 or (customer id = 12 and color = red)
