Master conditional selection and operators to filter millions of records using where and order by. Learn arithmetic, comparison, and logical operators, including between, in, and like, with real-time examples.
Master comparison operators—equal, not equal, greater than, less than, and their inclusive forms—to filter records with SQL queries such as select star from company where id is equal to four.
Explore the and or operators in SQL, learn when both conditions must be true versus when either can be true, using practical ID and salary examples.

explains the group by syntax and aggregate functions such as count, max, min, and average, with real-time examples grouping by address or country and ordering results.
Master the having clause in SQL with aggregate functions like count and sum. Apply group by, having, and order by to filter and sort grouped results.
Master the update statement in SQL: modify table data with set and where clauses, update single or multiple columns, verify results with select.
Use alter table to add a column, remove or rename a column, and alter a column to change its data type, with practical examples on a sample company table.
Learn how the truncate table command deletes all data permanently, preserves the table structure, and cannot be rolled back, unlike delete.
Use drop table to delete a table in a database. Keep in mind that truncate keeps the table structure, while drop removes the table entirely and risks data loss.

Explore how sql joins combine data from two or more tables based on a common field, and learn left, right, inner, full outer, natural, self, and cross join types.
Learn sql inner join basics, including the on condition, the common column, and how inner join returns only matching rows from two tables.
Learn how a left join returns all rows from the left table and matching rows from the right, using left outer join syntax with company and employee_course examples.
Perform a right join (also known as right outer join) to fetch all rows from the right table and only matching rows from the left table, using right join syntax.
Learn how a full join, or full outer join, returns all rows from both left and right tables, with examples selecting company id, company name, and course name.
Explore natural joins, which behave like inner joins by default without a condition, and demonstrate natural left, right, and full joins with practical syntax and examples.
Explore how cross join creates a cartesian product by multiplying rows from two tables, as shown with select from company cross join employee, generating 63 records.
