1. SQL: Single Table Queries SELECT FROM WHERE ORDER D. Christozov / G.Tuparov INF 280 Database Systems: Single Table Queries 1

2. SELECT: syntax SELECT [ DISTINCT | ALL ]{ * | column_list } FROM [owner.]table_name [alias] [,[owner.]table_name [alias]]... [WHERE condition] [GROUP BY column_list] [HAVING condition] [ORDER BY column_list]; Can accomplish the three relational operations: selection, projection, and join. The order of the clauses in the SELECT statement cannot be changed. The only required clauses are SELECT and FROM. D. Christozov / G.Tuparov INF 280 Database Systems: Single Table Queries 2

3. SELECT [ DISTINCT | ALL ]{ * | column_list } SELECTcarries out the relational operation of projection: select certain columns. column_listone/more column_names from the tables/views listed in the FROM clause. *All columns. The order of fields is the same as the order given in CREATE TABLE. In some dialects it is possible to place table_name.* ALLallows duplicated rows to appear in the result DISTINCTdoes not allow appearing of duplicate rows D. Christozov / G.Tuparov INF 280 Database Systems: Single Table Queries 3

4. SELECT [ DISTINCT | ALL ]{ * | column_list } Expressions affect every row of the result table literal constants: SELECT Item_id, descript, ‘available: ‘, on_hand FROM stock; arithmetic: +, -, *, / SELECT Item_id, ‘Value: ’, price*on_hand FROM stock; Use qualifier: first - to be sure about the result and second it is easier to read SELECT Item_id, price*on_hand AS ‘Value’ FROM stock; non aggregate functions: sqrt, sin, cos, etc D. Christozov / G.Tuparov INF 280 Database Systems: Single Table Queries 4

5. SELECT [ DISTINCT | ALL ]{ * | column_list } Aggregate functions: SUM, AVG, COUNT, MAX, MIN takes entire column(s) and produce a single value; predefined, affected by GROUP BY DISTINCTaffects SUM, AVG, MAX, MIN; not allowed in COUNT(*), but COUNT(DISTINCT column_name) EXAMPLE: SELECT DISTINCT cust_id, item_id FROM orders; EXAMPLE: SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT cust_id) FROM orders; D. Christozov / G.Tuparov INF 280 Database Systems: Single Table Queries 5

6. The FROM clause FROM Must immediately follow the required SELECT clause. Lists one or more tables and/or views. Defines the required join on those tables. D. Christozov / G.Tuparov INF 280 Database Systems: Single Table Queries 6

19. The ORDER BY clause Order according to a list of column_names from the list of column_names specified in SELECT. Column_numbers (according to the order of fields as they appeared in the SELECT clause) could be used also (useful when specified an expression without identifying it with AS clause). ASC (ascending) is the default option; DESC (descending) must be specified. When more than one order keys are used: the first one specifies the general order (major key), the second one (minor key) - the order into a group with the equal values of the major key, etc. D.
