Parts of a database
Attributes (fields)
An attribute or field is a component of a record that
describes something about an item.
Records
A record is the representation of an individual item.
Table
A collection of records
Database
A collection of tables and rules for accessing the tables
What is a relational database?
Originally developed by E.F. Codd in 1970
Organizes data into tables where each item is
a row and the attributes of the item are in
columns.
Different from “flat file” databases because
you can define “relationships” between items
in different tables.
Parts of a database
Record
Tables
Attribute/Field
• Records become “rows”
• Attributes/fields become “columns”
• Rules determine the relationship
between the tables and tie the data
together to form a database
Kinds of Relationships
“One to One”
One row of a table matches exactly to another
One person, one id number, one address
“One to Many”
One row of a table matches many of another
One person, many phone numbers
“Many to Many”
One row may match many of another or many
rows match one row of another
Creating a database
What information are we trying to store?
How do we describe the information?
Phone Book/Contact entries
Name
Address
Company
Phone Number
URL/Web Page
Age
Height (in meters)
Birthday
When we added the entry
Data Types
Binary
Database specific binary objects
Pictures, digital signatures, etc.
Boolean
True/False values
Character
Fixed width or variable size
Numeric
Integer, Real (floating decimal point), Money
Temporal
Time, Date, Timestamp
Phone Book/Contact Record
Name
Address
Company
Phone Number
URL/Web Page
Age
Height
Birthday
When we added the entry
Character

Basic SQL Commands
Creating tables with CREATE
Adding data with INSERT
Viewing data with SELECT
Removing data with DELETE
Modifying data with UPDATE
Destroying tables with DROP
SQL Select
SELECT "column_name" FROM
"table_name“
SELECT * FROM customers
SELECT name,surname FROM customers
SQL Select & Where
SELECT "column_name"
FROM "table_name"
WHERE "condition“
SELECT *
FROM employee
WHERE salary>1000
SQL Select & Where & Conditions
SELECT "column_name"
FROM "table_name"
WHERE "simple condition"
{[AND|OR] "simple condition"}+
SELECT store_name
FROM Store_Information
WHERE Sales > 1000
OR (Sales < 500 AND Sales > 275)
And & Or
Logical Operations
1 and 1 =1
1 and 0 =0
0 and 1 =0
0 and 0 =0
1 or 1 = 1
0 or 1 = 1
1 or 0 = 1
0 or 0 = 0
SQL Select & IN
SELECT "column_name"
FROM "table_name"
WHERE "column_name" IN ('value1',
'value2', ...)
The number of values in the parenthesis
can be one or more, with each values
separated by comma. Values can be
numerical or characters. If there is only
one value inside the parenthesis, this
commend is equivalent to
WHERE "column_name" = 'value1'
SQL Between
SELECT "column_name"
FROM "table_name"
WHERE "column_name" BETWEEN
'value1' AND 'value2‘
SELECT *
FROM Store_Information
WHERE Date BETWEEN 'Jan-06-1999' AND
'Jan-10-1999'
SQL Like
LIKE allows you to do a search based on a
pattern rather than specifying exactly what is
desired (as in IN) or spell out a range (as in
BETWEEN). The syntax for is as follows:
SELECT "column_name"
FROM "table_name"
WHERE "column_name" LIKE {PATTERN}
SELECT *
FROM Store_Information
WHERE store_name LIKE '%AN%'
SQL Like
'A_Z': All string that starts with 'A', another character,
and end with 'Z'. For example, 'ABZ' and 'A2Z' would
both satisfy the condition, while 'AKKZ' would not
(because there are two characters between A and Z
instead of one).
'ABC%': All strings that start with 'ABC'. For example,
'ABCD' and 'ABCABC' would both satisfy the
condition.
'%XYZ': All strings that end with 'XYZ'. For example,
'WXYZ' and 'ZZXYZ' would both satisfy the condition.
'%AN%': All string that contain the pattern 'AN'
anywhere. For example, 'LOS ANGELES' and 'SAN
FRANCISCO' would both satisfy the condition.
SQL Order By
SELECT "column_name"
FROM "table_name"
[WHERE "condition"]
ORDER BY "column_name" [ASC, DESC]
For more columns
ORDER BY "column_name1" [ASC, DESC],
"column_name2" [ASC, DESC]
SELECT store_name, Sales, Date
FROM Store_Information
ORDER BY Sales DESC
SQL Aggregate Functions
AVG
COUNT
MAX
MIN
SUM
The syntax for using functions is,
SELECT "function type"("column_name")
FROM "table_name"
SELECT SUM(Sales) FROM Store_Information
SQL Count
SELECT COUNT("column_name")
FROM "table_name"
Select Count(*) from Customers
Counts the number of rows in table
Count Distinct
COUNT and DISTINCT can be used together
in a statement to fetch the number of distinct
entries in a table.
SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT store_name)
FROM Store_Information
SQL Group By
SELECT "column_name1",
SUM("column_name2")
FROM "table_name"
GROUP BY "column_name1“
SELECT store_name, SUM(Sales)
FROM Store_Information
GROUP BY store_name
SQL Having
Instead of using the WHERE clause in the SQL
statement, though, we need to use the HAVING
clause, which is reserved for aggregate functions.
The HAVING clause is typically placed near the end
of the SQL statement, and a SQL statement with the
HAVING clause may or may not include the GROUP
BY clause. The syntax for HAVING is,
SELECT "column_name1",
SUM("column_name2")
FROM "table_name"
GROUP BY "column_name1"
HAVING (arithmetic function condition)
SQL Having
SELECT store_name, SUM(sales)
FROM Store_Information
GROUP BY store_name
HAVING SUM(sales) > 1500
SQL Alias
SELECT "table_alias"."column_name1"
"column_alias"
FROM "table_name" "table_alias"
Two reason to use
Change column name
Take data from two table or table alias
SELECT A1.store_name Store, SUM(A1.Sales)
"Total Sales"
FROM Store_Information A1
GROUP BY A1.store_name
Joining Tables
Used for combining data from different tables
SQL Join
With tables named A1 and A2
SELECT A1.region_name REGION,
SUM(A2.Sales) SALES
FROM Geography A1, Store_Information
A2
WHERE A1.store_name = A2.store_name
GROUP BY A1.region_name
Different types of JOINs
“Inner Join”
Unmatched rows in either table aren’t printed
“Left Outer Join”
All records from the “left” side are printed
“Right Outer Join”
All records from the “right” side are printed
“Full Outer Join”
All records are printed
Multiple Table Join
Join records from multiple tables
SQL Union
The purpose of the SQL UNION command is
to combine the results of two queries
together. In this respect, UNION is somewhat
similar to JOIN in that they are both used to
related information from multiple tables. One
restriction of UNION is that all corresponding
columns need to be of the same data type.
Also, when using UNION, only distinct values
are selected (similar to SELECT DISTINCT).
SQL Union
[SQL Statement 1]
UNION
[SQL Statement 2]
we want to find out all
the dates where there
is a sales transaction.
SQL Union
SELECT Date FROM Store_Information
UNION
SELECT Date FROM Internet_Sales
Result:
SQL Union ALL
The purpose of the SQL UNION ALL
command is also to combine the results of
two queries together. The difference between
UNION ALL and UNION is that, while UNION
only selects distinct values, UNION ALL
selects all values.
The syntax for UNION ALL is as follows:
[SQL Statement 1]
UNION ALL
[SQL Statement 2]
SQL Union All
SELECT Date FROM Store_Information
UNION ALL
SELECT Date FROM Internet_Sales
Record Operations
SQL Insert
INSERT INTO table_name (col_name1, …
col_namen)
VALUES (value1, …, valuen)
INSERT INTO Corvettes(Vette_id,
Body_style, Miles, Year, State)
VALUES (37, 'convertible', 25.5, 1986, 17)
SQL Update
To change one or more values of a row in a table
UPDATE table_name
SET col_name1 = value1,
…
col_namen = valuen
WHERE col_name = value
The WHERE clause is the primary key of the row
to be updated
UPDATE Corvettes
SET Year = 1996
WHERE Vette_id = 17
SQL Delete
Delete has the following syntax:
delete rel-name where qualification
Example: Fire all those sailors whose rating
is less than 2.
delete sailors
where rating < 2
