The document outlines the execution of simple SQL queries, string manipulation operations, and aggregate functions using a sample 'students' table. It provides examples for retrieving data, filtering, sorting, and performing text operations, as well as calculating totals, averages, and counts. The document concludes by demonstrating a combined query to find the highest mark holder's name in uppercase.

AIM: Perform Simple queries, string manipulation operations and aggregate functions.

1. SIMPLE SQL QUERIES

These are basic queries to retrieve data from a table.

Example Table: students


i name age marks city
d
1 Alice 20 85 New York
2 Bob 22 78 London
3 Charlie 21 92 Paris
4 David 23 60 New York

SIMPLE QUERIES EXAMPLES

1. Retrieve all data from the table:


SELECT * FROM students;

2. Select specific columns:


SELECT name, age FROM students;

3. Filter records using WHERE clause:


SELECT * FROM students WHERE city = 'New York';

4. Sort the records by marks (descending):


SELECT * FROM students ORDER BY marks DESC;

5. Find students above 21 years of age:


SELECT * FROM students WHERE age > 21;

2. STRING MANIPULATION OPERATIONS

These are operations performed on text (string) data like names, cities, etc.

1. Convert name to uppercase:


SELECT UPPER(name) AS Uppercase_Name FROM students;

Output:
Uppercase_Name
ALICE
BOB
CHARLIE
DAVID

2. Get the first 3 letters of each name:


SELECT LEFT(name, 3) AS Short_Name FROM students;
Output:
Short_Name
Ali
Bob
Cha
Dav

3. Concatenate name and city:


SELECT CONCAT(name, ' from ', city) AS Description FROM students;

Output:
Description
Alice from New York
Bob from London
Charlie from Paris
David from New York

4. Replace city name:


SELECT REPLACE(city, 'New York', 'Los Angeles') AS New_City FROM students;

3. AGGREGATE FUNCTIONS

Aggregate functions summarize the data, such as getting totals, averages, counts,
etc.

1. Count total students:


SELECT COUNT(*) AS Total_Students FROM students;

Output:
Total_Students
4

2. Calculate average marks:


SELECT AVG(marks) AS Average_Marks FROM students;

Output:
Average_Marks
78.75

3. Find the highest marks:


SELECT MAX(marks) AS Highest_Marks FROM students;

Output:
Highest_Marks
92

4. Find the lowest marks:


SELECT MIN(marks) AS Lowest_Marks FROM students;

Output:
Lowest_Mark
s
60

5. Sum of all marks:


SELECT SUM(marks) AS Total_Marks FROM students;

Output:
Total_Marks
315

6. Group students by city and count them:


SELECT city, COUNT(*) AS Student_Count FROM students GROUP BY city;

Output:
city Student_Count
New York 2
London 1
Paris 1

Combined Query (String + Aggregate)

Suppose you want to get the highest mark holder's name in uppercase:

SELECT UPPER(name) AS Topper, MAX(marks) AS Highest_Marks


FROM students;

Output:

Topper Highest_Marks
CHARLIE 92

Conclusion: Hence we have performed Simple queries, string manipulation


operations and aggregate functions.
