SQL – Structured Query Language
 Is a language that enables you to create and operate
on relational databases
 It is the standard language used by almost all the
database s/w vendors.
 Pronounced as SEQUEL
 Original version was developed by IBM’s Almanden
Research Center
 Latest ISO standard of SQL was released in 2008 and
named as SQL:2008

SQL – features
 Allows creating/modifying a database’s structure
 Changing security settings for system
 Permitting users for working on databases or tables
 Querying database
 Inserting/modifying/deleting the database contents

MYSQL Elements
 Literals
 Data types
 Nulls
 Comments

Literals
 It means the fixed value or constant value. It may be of
character, numeric or date time type.
 Character and date/time literals are always in single
quotation marks whereas numeric literals must be
without single quotation marks
 For example – ‘Virat’, 12, 12.56, ‘04-20-2018’
 Date and time values are always in the format
YYYY-MM-DD HH:MI:SS
 Special character like quotes are always written be
preceding it back-slash(). For example if we want to
store value as Tom’s Cat then it should be written as
Tom’s Cat

Data Type
 Means the type of value and type of operation we
can perform on data. For example on numeric value
we can store numbers and perform all arithmetic
operations and so on.
 MySQL support three categories of data types:
Numeric
Date and time
String types

Numeric Data Types
Data type Description
INT Numbers without decimal. Store up to 11 digits. -2147483648 to 2147483647
TINYINT Small integer value between 0 – 255 (4 digits)
SMALLINT More than TINYINT between -32768 to 32767 (5 digit)
MEDIUMINT Integer values up to 9 digits
BIGINT Very large integer value up to 11 digits
FLOAT(M,D) Real numbers i.e. number with decimal. M specify length of numeric value
including decimal place D and decimal symbol. For example if it is given as
FLOAT(8,2) then 5 integer value 1 decimal symbol and 2 digit after decimal
TOTAL – 8. it can work on 24 digits after decimal.
DOUBLE(M,D) Real numbers with more precision up to 53 place after decimal.
DECIMAL It is used to store exact numeric value that preserve exact precision for e.g.
money data in accounting system.
DECIMAL(P,D) means P no. of significant digits (1-65), D represent no. of digit
after decimal(0-30), for e.g DECIMAL(6,2) means 4 digit before decimal and 2
digit after decimal. Max will be 9999.99

Date and Time Types
DATE A date in YYY-MM-DD format between 1000-01-01 to 9999-12-31
In oracle data format is DD-MON-YYYY for e.g 10-SEP-2019
DATETIME Combination of date and time. For example to store 4th December
2018 and time is afternoon 3:30 then it should be written as –
2018-12-04 15:30:00
TIMESTAMP Similar to DATATIME but it is written without hyphen for example the
above date time is stored as 20181204153000
TIME To store time in the format HH:MM:SS
YEAR(M) To store only year part of data where M may be 2 or 4 i.e. year in 2
digit like 18 or 4 digit like 2018

String Types
CHAR(M) Fixed length string between 1 and 255. it always occupy M size for each data
for example if size is CHAR(20) and we store value ‘MOBILE’ , although the size
of MOBILE is 6 but in a table it will occupy 20 size with space padded at right
side for remaining place.
Mostly use in the case where the data to be insert is of fixed size like Grade
(A,B,C,..) or Employee code as E001, E002, etc. In this case CHAR will give
better performance than varchar
VARCHAR(M) Variable length string between 1 and 65535 (from MySQL 5.0.3) , earlier it was
255. it takes size as per the data entered for example with VARCHAR(20) if the
data entered is MOBILE then it will take only 6 byte. It is useful for the data like
name, address where the number of character to be enter is not fixed.
VARCHAR2 It is supported in ORACLE, both are almost same with minor difference. The
difference is in the way they are handling Empty String and NULL, for VARCHAR
these two are different where as VARCHAR2 treats both same.

Difference between CHAR & VARCHAR
CHAR VARCHAR
Fixed length string Variable length string
Used where number of character to enter
is fixed like Grade, EmpCode, etc
Used where number of character to be
enter is not fixed like name, address etc.
Fast, no memory allocation every time Slow, as it take size according to data so
every time memory allocation is done
It takes more memory It takes less space

NULL VALUE
• NULL means missing information
• NULL can appear in any type of column if it is not restricted by
NOT NULL or PRIMARY KEY
• Always remember NULL is neither equal to 0 nor space. NULL
means nothing
• Used in situation like if email id is not available with students
then we will insert NULL

COMMENTS
• It is a text that is not executed, only for
documentation purpose. Comments in MySQL
can be written as
– Begin the comment with /* and */
– Begin the comment with – (followed by space)
– Begin then comment with #
• For example
– /* Select * from emp where empno=4 */
– Select * from emp; -- it will fetch all details

SQL COMMAND SYNTAX
Commands Description
Keywords That have special meaning in SQL. They are the commands in mysql
Clause They are used to support mysql commands like FROM, WHERE etc.
Arguments Values passed to clause like table name to FROM clause conditions to
WHERE clause for e.g.
SELECT * FROM EMP WHERE SALARY>12000;
In the above command
SELECT is keyword
FROM AND WHERE is clause
EMP is an argument to FROM
SALARY>12000 is argument to WHERE

CREATING and USING DATABASE
CREATE DATABASE <DATABASE NAME>
CREATE DATABASE MYDB;
TO SEE LIST OF DATABASES:
SHOW DATABASES;
TO OPEN ANY DATABASE TO WORK
USE DATABASENAME
USE MYDB

CREATING TABLE
Syntax:-
Create Table TableName(ColumnName datatype(size),
ColumnName datatype(size),…..);
Example:-
Create Table Employee(empno int, name varchar(20), dept
varchar(20), salary int);
Create table Student(roll int, name varchar(20), stream
varchar(20), per int);

INSERTING RECORDS IN TABLE
Syntax:-
Insert into tablename values(value1,value2,…)
Note:-
1) char, varchar and date value must be in single
quotes
2) Values must be passed in the order of their column
3) Date values are passed in the format
dd-mon-yyyy i.e. 20-Sep-2015 (in oracle)
yyyy-mm-dd (in mysql)

INSERTING RECORDS IN TABLE
Syntax:-
Insert into emp values(1, ‘Rakesh’,’Sales’,34000)
Insert into student values(1,’Mahi’,’Science’,89);
Inserting in selected columns
Insert into emp (empno, name, dept ) values
(2,’dipanker’,’IT’)

SELECTING RECORD
Select statement allows to send queries to table and
fetch the desired record. Select can be used to select
both horizontal and vertical subset.
Syntax:-
Select * / columnnames FROM tablename [ where
condition ]

SELECTING RECORD
Selecting all record and all columns
Select * from emp;
Selecting desired columns
select empno, name from emp;
Changing the order of columns
select dept, name from emp;

DISTINCT keyword
DISTINCT keyword is used to eliminate the duplicate records from output.
For e.g. if we select dept from employee table it will display all the
department from the table including duplicate rows.
Select dept from emp;
Output will be:-
Dept
--------
Sales
Sales
IT
IT
HR
Empno Name Dept Salary
1 Ravi Sales 24000
2 Sunny Sales 35000
3 Shobit IT 30000
4 Vikram IT 27000
5 nitin HR 45000

DISTINCT keyword
If we don’t want to see the duplicate rows in output we have to
use DISTINCT keyword.
Select DISTINCT dept from emp;
Output will be:-
Dept
--------
Sales
IT
HR
1 Ravi Sales 24000
2 Sunny Sales 35000
3 Shobit IT 30000
4 Vikram IT 27000
5 nitin HR 45000

PERFORMING SIMPLE CALCULATION
While performing SQL operations sometimes simple
calculations are required, SQL provides facility to perform
simple arithmetic operations in query. In MySQL we can
give these queries without FROM clause i.e. table name
is not required for these queries,
For Example
Select 10*2;
Select 10*3/6;

PERFORMING SIMPLE CALCULATION
MySQL also provides DUAL table to provide compatibility
with other DBMS. It is dummy table used for these type
queries where table name is not required. It contains one
row and one column. For example:
Select 100+200 from DUAL;
Select curdate() from dual;
CALCULATION WITH TABLE DATA
Select name, salary, salary * 12 Annual_Salary from emp;
Select empno, salary+1000 from emp
Update student set total=phy+chem+maths+cs+eng;

COLUMN ALIAS
It is a temporary name/label given to column that will appear in
output. For example if column name is dept and you want
Department to appear as column heading then we have to give
Column Alias. If we want alias name of multiple words then it
should be enclosed in double quotes. Its format is :
ColumnName [AS] ColumnAlias
Example
(i) Select empno Employee_Number, name, dept Department,
Salary Income from emp;
(ii) Select name, Salary*12 as “Annual Income” from emp;

HANDLING NULL
From the above table we can observe that salary of Shaban is NULL i.e.
not assigned, Now if we want 0 or “not assigned” for the salary
information of shaban, we have to use IFNULL()
Select empno,name,IFNULL(Salary,”not assigned”) from emp;
Column value to substitute if NULL found

PUTTING TEXT IN QUERY OUTPUT
SQL allows to put user defined symbols or text with table output.
Like ‘Rs’ with Salary or ‘%’ symbol with commission
For e.g.
Select name, dept, ‘Rs.’, salary from emp;
Select name, ‘ works in department’, dept, ‘ and getting salary rs.
‘, salary from emp;
Select name, concat(‘Rs. ‘, salary) from emp;

WHERE clause
WHERE clause is used to select specified rows. It allows
to select only desired rows by applying condition. We
can use all comparison(>, <, >=, <=, =, <>) and logical
operator (AND, OR, NOT).
AND ( &&), OR (||) , NOT (!)
For example
Select * from emp where salary>4000;
Select * from emp where empno=1;
Select name,dept from emp where dept=‘HR’;

WHERE clause
AND(&&) means both conditions must be true, OR(||)
means any condition must be true to produce output.
NOT(!) will do the reverse checking.
Select * from emp where salary>4000 and salary<8000;
Select * from emp where dept=‘Sales’ and salary<30000;
Select name,dept from emp where dept=‘HR’ and
salary>=20000 and salary<=40000;
Select * from emp where dept=‘HR’ or dept=‘IT’;
Select * from emp where NOT empno=4;

SQL operators
1) BETWEEN
2) IN
3) LIKE
4) IS NULL

BETWEEN
BETWEEN allows to specify range of values to search in
any column. It is used with AND clause and it will include
the specified values during the searching. For e.g.
Select * from emp where salary between 18000 and 30000;
Select name from emp where empno between 2 and 5;
Select * from emp where salary NOT between 25000 and
35000

IN
IN allows to specify LIST of values in which searching will
be performed. It will return all those record that matches
any value in a given list of values. It can be thought as an
alternative of multiple ORs
Select * from emp where dept IN(‘sales’,’it’);
Select name from emp where empno IN (2,4,5);
Select * from emp where dept NOT IN(‘sales’,’it’)

LIKE
LIKE allows to search based on pattern. It is used when
we don’t want to search an exact value or we don’t know
that exact value, and we know only the pattern of value
like name starting from any particular letter, or ending
with and containing any particular letter or word.
LIKE is used with two wildcard characters:
a) % : used when we want to substitute multiple
characters. With % length is not fixed
b) _ (underscore) : used when we want to substitute
Single character

LIKE
Search for employee whose name begins from ‘s’
Select * from emp where name like ‘s%’;
Search for employee whose name ends with ‘r’
Select * from emp where name like ‘%r’;
Search for employee whose name contains ‘a’ anywhere
Select * from emp where name like ‘%a%’
Search for employee whose dob is in feb
Select * from emp where dob like ‘%-02-%’
Search employee whose name is of 5 letters begins from ‘s’
Select * from emp where name like ‘s_ _ _ _ ’;

IS NULL
IS NULL is used to compare NULL values present in any
column. Because NULL is not considered as value so we
cannot compare with = sign, so to compare with NULL
SQL provides IS NULL.
Select * from emp where salary is null;
Select * from emp where salary is not null;

OPERATOR PRECEDENCE
When multiple operators are used in expression, then
evaluation of expression takes place in the order of
precedence. Higher precedence operator will execute
first. !
*, /, DIV, %, MOD
- +
<, >
==, >=, <=, !=, IS, LIKE, IN, BETWEEN
NOT
AND
OR
HIGH
LOW

SORTING OUTPUT
By default records will come in the output in the same
order in which it was entered. To see the output rows in
sorted or arranged in ascending or descending order SQL
provide ORDER BY clause. By default output will be
ascending order(ASC) to see output in descending order
we use DESC clause with ORDER BY.
Select * from emp order by name; (ascending order)
Select * from emp order by salary desc;
Select * from emp order by dept asc, salary desc;

MYSQL FUNCTIONS
A function is built – in code for specific purpose that
takes value and returns a single value. Values passed to
functions are known as arguments/parameters.
There are various categories of function in MySQL:-
1) String Function
2) Mathematical function
3) Date and time function

String Function
Function Description Example
CHAR() Return character for
given ASCII Code
Select Char(65);
Output- A
CONCAT() Return concatenated
string
Select concat(name, ‘ works in ‘, dept,’
department);
LOWER()/
LCASE()
Return string in small
letters
Select lower(‘INDIA’); Output- india
Select lower(name) from emp;
SUBSTRING(
S,P,N) /
MID(S,P,N)
Return N character of
string S, beginning
from P
Select SUBSTRING(‘LAPTOP’,3,3); Output – PTO
Select SUBSTR(‘COMPUTER’,4,3); Output – PUT
UPPER()/
UCASE()
Return string in capital
letters
Select Upper(‘india’); Output- INDIA
LTRIM() Removes leading space Select LTRIM(‘ Apple’); Output- ‘Apple’
RTRIM Remove trailing space Select RTRIM(‘Apple ‘); Output- ‘Apple’

String Function
TRIM() Remove spaces from
beginning and ending
Select TRIM(‘ Apple ‘); Output-’Apple’
Select * from emp where trim(name) = ‘Suyash’;
INSTR() It search one string in
another string and
returns position, if not
found 0
Select INSTR(‘COMPUTER’,’PUT’); Output-4
Select INSTR(‘PYTHON’,’C++’); Output – 0
LENGTH() Returns number of
character in string
Select length(‘python’); Output- 7
Select name, length(name) from emp
LEFT(S,N) Return N characters of
S from beginning
Select LEFT(‘KV OEF’,2); Output- KV
RIGHT(S,N) Return N characters of
S from ending
Select RIGHT(‘KV OEF’,3); Output- OEF

Numeric Function
MOD(M,N) Return remainder M/N Select MOD(11,5); Output- 1
POWER(B,P) Return B to power P Select POWER(2,5); Output-32
ROUND(N,D) Return number rounded to D
place after decimal
Select ROUND(11.589,2); Output- 11.59
Select ROUND(12.999,2); Output- 13.00
SIGN(N) Return -1 for –ve number 1 for
+ve number
Select sign(-10); Output : -1
Select sign(10); Output : 1
SQRT(N) Returns square root of N Select SQRT(144); Output: 12
TRUNCATE(
M,N)
Return number upto N place
after decimal without rounding
it
Select Truncate(15.789,2); Output: 15.79

Date and Time Function
CURDATE()/
CURRENT_DATE()
/ CURRENT_DATE
Return the current date Select curdate();
Select current_date();
DATE() Return date part from date-
time expression
Select date(‘2018-08-15 12:30’);
Output: 2018-08-15
MONTH() Return month from date Select month(‘2018-08-15’); Output: 08

Sunday-1, Monday-2, ..
Select dayofweek(‘2018-12-04’);
Output: 3
DAYOFYEAR() Return value from 1-366 Select dayofyear(‘2018-02-10’)
Output: 41

Date and Time Function
NOW() Return both current date
and time at which the
function executes
Select now();
SYSDATE() Return both current date
and time
Select sysdate()
Difference Between NOW() and SYSDATE() :
NOW() function return the date and time at which function was executed
even if we execute multiple NOW() function with select. whereas SYSDATE()
will always return date and time at which each SYDATE() function started
execution. For example.
mysql> Select now(), sleep(2), now();
Output: 2018-12-04 10:26:20, 0, 2018-12-04 10:26:20
mysql> Select sysdate(), sleep(2), sysdate();
Output: 2018-12-04 10:27:08, 0, 2018-12-04 10:27:10

AGGREGATE functions
Aggregate function is used to perform calculation on group of rows
and return the calculated summary like sum of salary, average of
salary etc.
Available aggregate functions are –
1. SUM()
2. AVG()
3. COUNT()
4. MAX()
5. MIN()
6. COUNT(*)

count(*) Vs count()
Count(*) function is used to count the number of rows in query
output whereas count() is used to count values present in any
column excluding NULL values.
Note:
All aggregate function ignores the NULL values.

GROUP BY
GROUP BY clause is used to divide the table into logical groups and
we can perform aggregate functions in those groups. In this case
aggregate function will return output for each group. For example
if we want sum of salary of each department we have to divide
table records

Aggregate functions by default takes the entire table as a single group
that’s why we are getting the sum(), avg(), etc output for the entire table.
Now suppose organization wants the sum() of all the job separately, or
wants to find the average salary of every job. In this case we have to
logically divide our table into groups based on job, so that every group will
be passed to aggregate function for calculation and aggregate function will
return the result for every group.

Group by clause helps up to divide the table into logical groups based on any
column value. In those logically divided records we can apply aggregate
functions.
For. E.g.
SELECT SUM(SAL) FROM EMP GROUP BY DEPT;
SELECT JOB,SUM(SAL) FROM EMP GROUP BY DEPT;
SELECT JOB,SUM(SAL),AVG(SAL),MAX(SAL),COUNT(*)
EMPLOYEE_COUNT FROM EMP;
NOTE :- when we are using GROUP BY we can use only aggregate function and
the column on which we are grouping in the SELECT list because they will form a
group other than any column will gives you an error because they will be not
the part of the group.
For e.g.
SELECT ENAME,JOB,SUM(SAL) FROM EMP GROUP BY JOB;
Error -> because Ename is not a group expression

HAVING with GROUP BY
• If we want to filter or restrict some rows from the output produced by
GROUP BY then we use HAVING clause. It is used to put condition of group of
rows. With having clause we can use aggregate functions also.
• WHERE is used before the GROUP BY. With WHERE we cannot use aggregate
function.
• E.g.
• SELECT DEPT,AVG(SAL) FROM EMP GROUP BY DEPT HAVING
JOB IN (‘HR’,’SALES’)
• SELECT DEPT,MAX(SAL),MIN(SAL),COUNT(*) FROM EMP
GROUP BY DEPT HAVING COUNT(*)>2
• SELECT DEPT,MAX(SAL),MIN(SAL) FROM EMP WHERE
SAL>=2000 GROUP BY DEPT HAVING DEPT IN(‘IT’,’HR’)

EXPORTING DATABASE
• Exporting means creating the text file containing all
the database contents which can be imported to any
other computer. We use mysqldump command for
this purpose. To export:
• Open cmd from Start button
• Or
• Press Window Key + R and type cmd and press Enter
• At cmd prompt like C:....> type mysqldump
command

EXPORTING DATABASE
• To export all database
– mysqldump --all-databases > c:mydb.sql
• It will create mydb.sql in C:, we can check it by open it.
• To export single database
– mysqldump myworks > c:mydb2.sql
• To export multiple datbase
– mysqldump myworks company c:mydb3.sql

IMPORTINGDATABASE
• STEP – 1
– Open Notepad and type the following commands

IMPORTING DATABASE
• STEP – 1
– Save this file with mydb.sql or any name, in your
desired location for e.g. C:
• STEP – 2
– Open MySQL and type
• SOURCE C:mydb.sql
– It will create database myworks, 2 tables emp,
students with records. We can check it by “SHOW
TABLES” or “SELECT” command
