Core Data Query Language (DQL) & Filtering

Discipline: Data Analyst | Module: Module 2: Enterprise Structured Query Language (SQL) & Relational Databases | Estimated Study Time: 10 Hours

Welcome to Core Data Query Language (DQL) & Filtering. This topic delivers foundational and advanced concepts designed for production engineering and real-world workflows.

Key Learning Objectives

1. Retrieval (SELECT, SELECT DISTINCT, Column Aliasing)
2. Row Filtering (WHERE, Logical Operators, IN, BETWEEN, LIKE, ILIKE, IS NULL)
3. Sorting & Pagination (ORDER BY, ASC, DESC, LIMIT, OFFSET, FETCH FIRST)

Detailed Curriculum Breakdown

Retrieval (SELECT, SELECT DISTINCT, Column Aliasing)

Explore the fundamental principles, real-world patterns, and best practices for Retrieval (SELECT, SELECT DISTINCT, Column Aliasing). Practice hands-on implementations to master these concepts.

// Code Example: Retrieval (SELECT, SELECT DISTINCT, Column Aliasing)
// Implement verified patterns for production use
console.log("Mastering Retrieval (SELECT, SELECT DISTINCT, Column Aliasing)");

Row Filtering (WHERE, Logical Operators, IN, BETWEEN, LIKE, ILIKE, IS NULL)

Explore the fundamental principles, real-world patterns, and best practices for Row Filtering (WHERE, Logical Operators, IN, BETWEEN, LIKE, ILIKE, IS NULL). Practice hands-on implementations to master these concepts.

// Code Example: Row Filtering (WHERE, Logical Operators, IN, BETWEEN, LIKE, ILIKE, IS NULL)
// Implement verified patterns for production use
console.log("Mastering Row Filtering (WHERE, Logical Operators, IN, BETWEEN, LIKE, ILIKE, IS NULL)");

Sorting & Pagination (ORDER BY, ASC, DESC, LIMIT, OFFSET, FETCH FIRST)

Explore the fundamental principles, real-world patterns, and best practices for Sorting & Pagination (ORDER BY, ASC, DESC, LIMIT, OFFSET, FETCH FIRST). Practice hands-on implementations to master these concepts.

// Code Example: Sorting & Pagination (ORDER BY, ASC, DESC, LIMIT, OFFSET, FETCH FIRST)
