Relational Database Concept
• Dr. E. F. Codd proposed the relational model for database systems in 1970.
• It is the basis for the relational database management system (RDBMS).
• The relational model consists of the following:– Collection of objects or relations– Set of operators to act on the relations– Data integrity for accuracy and consistency
Copyright © 2004, Oracle. All rights reserved.
Definition of a Relational Database
A relational database is a collection of relations or two-dimensional tables.

Relational Database Properties
A relational database:• Can be accessed and modified by executing
structured query language (SQL) statements• Contains a collection of tables with no physical
pointers• Uses a set of operators
Copyright © 2004, Oracle. All rights reserved.
Communicating with an RDBMSUsing SQL
SQL statement is entered. Statement is sent to Oracle server.

Summary
• Oracle Database 10g is the database for grid computing.
• The database is based on the object relational database management system.
• Relational databases are composed of relations, managed by relational operations, and governed by data integrity constraints.
• With the Oracle server, you can store and manage information by using the SQL language and PL/SQL engine.

Objectives
After completing this lesson, you should be able to do the following:• List the capabilities of SQL SELECT statements• Execute a basic SELECT statement
• Differentiate between SQL statements and iSQL*Plus commands
Copyright © 2004, Oracle. All rights reserved.
Capabilities of SQL SELECT Statements
SelectionProjection
Table 1 Table 2
Table 1Table 1
Join
Copyright © 2004, Oracle. All rights reserved.
Basic SELECT Statement
• SELECT identifies the columns to be displayed• FROM identifies the table containing those columns
SELECT *|{[DISTINCT] column|expression [alias],...}FROM table;
Copyright © 2004, Oracle. All rights reserved.
Selecting Specific Columns
SELECT department_id, location_idFROM departments;
Copyright © 2004, Oracle. All rights reserved.
Writing SQL Statements
• SQL statements are not case-sensitive. • SQL statements can be on one or more lines.• Keywords cannot be abbreviated or split
across lines.• Clauses are usually placed on separate lines.• Indents are used to enhance readability.• In iSQL*Plus, SQL statements can optionally be
terminated by a semicolon (;). Semicolons are required if you execute multiple SQL statements.
• In SQL*plus, you are required to end each SQL statement with a semicolon (;).
Copyright © 2004, Oracle. All rights reserved.
Column Heading Defaults
• iSQL*Plus:– Default heading alignment: Center– Default heading display: Uppercase
• SQL*Plus:– Character and Date column headings are left-
aligned– Number column headings are right-aligned– Default heading display: Uppercase
Copyright © 2004, Oracle. All rights reserved.
Arithmetic Expressions
Create expressions with number and date data by using arithmetic operators.

Defining a Null Value
• A null is a value that is unavailable, unassigned, unknown, or inapplicable.
• A null is not the same as a zero or a blank space.
SELECT last_name, job_id, salary, commission_pctFROM employees;
…
…
Copyright © 2004, Oracle. All rights reserved.
SELECT last_name, 12*salary*commission_pctFROM employees;
Null Values in Arithmetic Expressions
Arithmetic expressions containing a null value evaluate to null.

Defining a Column Alias
A column alias:• Renames a column heading• Is useful with calculations• Immediately follows the column name (There can
also be the optional AS keyword between the column name and alias.)
• Requires double quotation marks if it contains spaces or special characters or if it is case-sensitive
Copyright © 2004, Oracle. All rights reserved.
Using Column Aliases
SELECT last_name "Name" , salary*12 "Annual Salary"FROM employees;
SELECT last_name AS name, commission_pct commFROM employees;
…
…
Copyright © 2004, Oracle. All rights reserved.
Concatenation Operator
A concatenation operator:• Links columns or character strings to other
columns• Is represented by two vertical bars (||)• Creates a resultant column that is a character
expression
SELECT last_name||job_id AS "Employees"FROM employees;
…
Copyright © 2004, Oracle. All rights reserved.
Literal Character Strings
• A literal is a character, a number, or a date that is included in the SELECT statement.
• Date and character literal values must be enclosed by single quotation marks.
• Each character string is output once for eachrow returned.
Copyright © 2004, Oracle. All rights reserved.
Using Literal Character Strings
…
SELECT last_name ||' is a '||job_id AS "Employee Details"
FROM employees;
Copyright © 2004, Oracle. All rights reserved.
Alternative Quote (q) Operator
• Specify your own quotation mark delimiter• Choose any delimiter• Increase readability and usability
SELECT department_name || q'[, it's assigned Manager Id: ]' || manager_id AS "Department and Manager"
FROM departments;
…
Copyright © 2004, Oracle. All rights reserved.
Duplicate Rows
The default display of queries is all rows, including duplicate rows.
SELECT department_idFROM employees;
…
SELECT DISTINCT department_idFROM employees;

SQL Statements Versus iSQL*Plus Commands
SQLstatements
SQL• A language• ANSI standard• Keyword cannot be
abbreviated• Statements manipulate
data and table definitions in the database
iSQL*Plus• An environment• Oracle-proprietary• Keywords can be
abbreviated• Commands do not allow
manipulation of values in the database
• Runs on a browser• Centrally loaded; does not
have to be implemented on each machine
iSQL*Pluscommands
Copyright © 2004, Oracle. All rights reserved.
Overview of iSQL*Plus
After you log in to iSQL*Plus, you can:• Describe table structures• Enter, execute, and edit SQL statements• Save or append SQL statements to files • Execute or edit statements that are stored in
saved script files

Summary
In this lesson, you should have learned how to: • Write a SELECT statement that:
– Returns all rows and columns from a table– Returns specified columns from a table– Uses column aliases to display more descriptive
column headings
• Use the iSQL*Plus environment to write, save, and execute SQL statements and iSQL*Plus commands
SELECT *|{[DISTINCT] column|expression [alias],...}FROM table;

Limiting the Rows That Are Selected
• Restrict the rows that are returned by using the WHERE clause:
• The WHERE clause follows the FROM clause.
SELECT *|{[DISTINCT] column|expression [alias],...}FROM table[WHERE condition(s)];
Copyright © 2004, Oracle. All rights reserved.
SELECT employee_id, last_name, job_id, department_idFROM employeesWHERE department_id = 90 ;
Using the WHERE Clause
Copyright © 2004, Oracle. All rights reserved.
SELECT last_name, job_id, department_idFROM employeesWHERE last_name = 'Whalen' ;
Character Strings and Dates
• Character strings and date values are enclosed by single quotation marks.
• Character values are case-sensitive, and date values are format-sensitive.
• The default date format is DD-MON-RR.

SELECT last_name, salaryFROM employeesWHERE salary <= 3000 ;
Using Comparison Conditions
Copyright © 2004, Oracle. All rights reserved.
SELECT last_name, salaryFROM employeesWHERE salary BETWEEN 2500 AND 3500 ;
Using the BETWEEN Condition
Use the BETWEEN condition to display rows based on a range of values:
Lower limit Upper limit
Copyright © 2004, Oracle. All rights reserved.
SELECT employee_id, last_name, salary, manager_idFROM employeesWHERE manager_id IN (100, 101, 201) ;
Using the IN Condition
Use the IN membership condition to test for values in a list:
Copyright © 2004, Oracle. All rights reserved.
SELECT first_nameFROM employeesWHERE first_name LIKE 'S%' ;
Using the LIKE Condition
• Use the LIKE condition to perform wildcard searches of valid search string values.
• Search conditions can contain either literal characters or numbers:– % denotes zero or many characters.– _ denotes one character.
Copyright © 2004, Oracle. All rights reserved.
• You can combine pattern-matching characters:
• You can use the ESCAPE identifier to search for the actual % and _ symbols.
SELECT last_nameFROM employeesWHERE last_name LIKE '_o%' ;
Using the LIKE Condition
Copyright © 2004, Oracle. All rights reserved.
SELECT last_name, manager_idFROM employeesWHERE manager_id IS NULL ;
Using the NULL Conditions
Test for nulls with the IS NULL operator.

Logical Conditions
Returns TRUE if the following condition is false
NOT
Returns TRUE if either component condition is true
OR
Returns TRUE if both component conditions are true
AND
MeaningOperator
Copyright © 2004, Oracle. All rights reserved.
SELECT employee_id, last_name, job_id, salaryFROM employeesWHERE salary >=10000AND job_id LIKE '%MAN%' ;
Using the AND Operator
AND requires both conditions to be true:
Copyright © 2004, Oracle. All rights reserved.
SELECT employee_id, last_name, job_id, salaryFROM employeesWHERE salary >= 10000OR job_id LIKE '%MAN%' ;
Using the OR Operator
OR requires either condition to be true:
Copyright © 2004, Oracle. All rights reserved.
SELECT last_name, job_idFROM employeesWHERE job_id
NOT IN ('IT_PROG', 'ST_CLERK', 'SA_REP') ;
Using the NOT Operator

Using the ORDER BY Clause
• Sort retrieved rows with the ORDER BY clause:– ASC: ascending order, default– DESC: descending order
• The ORDER BY clause comes last in the SELECTstatement:
SELECT last_name, job_id, department_id, hire_dateFROM employeesORDER BY hire_date ;
…
Copyright © 2004, Oracle. All rights reserved.
Sorting
• Sorting in descending order:
• Sorting by column alias:
• Sorting by multiple columns:
SELECT last_name, job_id, department_id, hire_dateFROM employeesORDER BY hire_date DESC ; 1
SELECT employee_id, last_name, salary*12 annsalFROM employeesORDER BY annsal ;
2
SELECT last_name, department_id, salaryFROM employeesORDER BY department_id, salary DESC;

Substitution Variables
... salary = ? …… department_id = ? … ... last_name = ? ...
I want to query different values.
Copyright © 2004, Oracle. All rights reserved.
Substitution Variables
• Use iSQL*Plus substitution variables to:– Temporarily store values with single-ampersand (&)
and double-ampersand (&&) substitution
• Use substitution variables to supplement the following:– WHERE conditions– ORDER BY clauses
– Column expressions– Table names– Entire SELECT statements
Copyright © 2004, Oracle. All rights reserved.
SELECT employee_id, last_name, salary, department_idFROM employeesWHERE employee_id = &employee_num ;
Using the & Substitution Variable
Use a variable prefixed with an ampersand (&) to prompt the user for a value:
Copyright © 2004, Oracle. All rights reserved.
SELECT last_name, department_id, salary*12FROM employeesWHERE job_id = '&job_title' ;
Character and Date Values with Substitution Variables
Use single quotation marks for date and character values:
Copyright © 2004, Oracle. All rights reserved.
Specifying Column Names, Expressions, and Text
SELECT employee_id, last_name, job_id,&column_nameFROM employeesWHERE &conditionORDER BY &order_column ;
salary
salary > 15000
last_name
Copyright © 2004, Oracle. All rights reserved.
SELECT employee_id, last_name, job_id, &&column_nameFROM employeesORDER BY &column_name ;
…
Using the && Substitution Variable
Use the double ampersand (&&) if you want to reuse the variable value without prompting the user each time:
Copyright © 2004, Oracle. All rights reserved.
Using the iSQL*Plus DEFINE Command
• Use the iSQL*Plus DEFINE command to create and assign a value to a variable.
• Use the iSQL*Plus UNDEFINE command to remove a variable.
DEFINE employee_num = 200
SELECT employee_id, last_name, salary, department_idFROM employeesWHERE employee_id = &employee_num ;
UNDEFINE employee_num
Copyright © 2004, Oracle. All rights reserved.
old 3: WHERE employee_id = &employee_numnew 3: WHERE employee_id = 200
SET VERIFY ONSELECT employee_id, last_name, salary, department_idFROM employeesWHERE employee_id = &employee_num;
Using the VERIFY Command
Use the VERIFY command to toggle the display of the substitution variable, both before and after iSQL*Plusreplaces substitution variables with values:
Copyright © 2004, Oracle. All rights reserved.
SELECT *|{[DISTINCT] column|expression [alias],...}FROM table[WHERE condition(s)][ORDER BY {column, expr, alias} [ASC|DESC]] ;
Summary
In this lesson, you should have learned how to: • Use the WHERE clause to restrict rows of output:
– Use the comparison conditions– Use the BETWEEN, IN, LIKE, and NULL conditions– Apply the logical AND, OR, and NOT operators
• Use the ORDER BY clause to sort rows of output:
• Use ampersand substitution in iSQL*Plus to restrict and sort output at run time
Copyright © 2004, Oracle. All rights reserved.
Practice 2: Overview
This practice covers the following topics:• Selecting data and changing the order of
the rows that are displayed• Restricting rows by using the WHERE clause• Sorting rows by using the ORDER BY clause
• Using substitution variables to add flexibility to your SQL SELECT statements
