ORDER BY clause helps to sort the data in either ascending order to descending order.

Ascending order sort query

SELECT name,age FROM pcdsEmployee ORDER BY age ASC

Descending order sort query

SELECT name FROM pcdsEmployee ORDER BY age DESC

SQL IN operator is used to see if the value exists in a group of values. For instance the below

SQL checks if the Name is either 'David' or 'Craig' SELECT * FROM wbEmployee WHERE name IN ('David','Craig') Also you can specify a not clause with the same. SELECT * FROM wbEmployee WHERE age NOT IN (30,25)

Below SQL selects employees born between '01/01/1995' AND '01/01/1978' as per mysql

SELECT * FROM wbEmployee WHERE DOB BETWEEN '1995-01-01' AND '2011-09-28'

Below Sql Query find the second highest salary:

SELECT * FROM wbEmployeeSalary a WHERE (2=(SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT(b.salary)) FROM wbEmployeeSalary b WHERE b.salary>=a.salary))

Inner join shows matches only when they exist in both tables. Example in the below SQL there are two tables Customers and Orders and the inner join in made on Customers. Customerid and Orders.Customerid. So this SQL will only give you result with customers who have orders. If the customer does not have order it will not display that record.

SELECT Customers.*, Orders.* FROM Customers INNER JOIN Orders ON Customers.CustomerID=Orders.CustomerID 

Left join will display all records in left table of the SQL statement. In SQL below customers with or without orders will be displayed. Order data for customers without orders appears as NULL values. For example, you want to determine the amount ordered by each customer and you need to see who has not ordered anything as well. You can also see the LEFT OUTER JOIN as a mirror image of the RIGHT OUTER JOIN (Is covered in the next section) if you switch the side of each table.

SELECT Customers.*, Orders.* FROM Customers LEFT OUTER JOIN Orders ON

Customers.CustomerID =Orders.CustomerID 

Right join will display all records in right table of the SQL statement. In SQL below all orders with or without matching customer records will be displayed. Customer data for orders without customers appears as NULL values. For example, you want to determine if there are any orders in the data with undefined CustomerID values (say, after a conversion or something like it). You can also see the RIGHT OUTER JOIN as a mirror image of the LEFT OUTER JOIN if you switch the side of each table.

SELECT Customers.*, Orders.* FROM Customers RIGHT OUTER JOIN Orders ON

Customers.CustomerID =Orders.CustomerID
