    Database Integration

    Table Creation
    • A table is a collection of related data organized in rows and columns. Each table
    should have a unique name and must be defined with columns that specify data
    types.

    CREATE TABLE: Command to create a table.


    INT, VARCHAR(50): Data types, where INT is for
    integers and VARCHAR(50) allows up to 50 characters.
    PRIMARY KEY: Ensures that the student_id is unique
    for each student and is not null.
    Primary Key and Foreign Key Concepts
    • Primary Key: A primary key is a unique
    identifier for each record in a table. It
    enforces uniqueness and ensures no
    NULL values.
    • Foreign Key: A foreign key links two
    tables together. It is a field (or fields)
    that references the primary key of
    another table, maintaining referential
    integrity.

    The student_id in Enrollments is a foreign key referencing the primary key in the Students table.

    The course_id in Enrollments references the Courses table.


    Inserting Data into a Table
    • The INSERT INTO command is used to add data into a table.

    This adds a new student to the Students table and a new course to the Courses
    table.
    Updating Data in a Table
    • The UPDATE command is used to modify existing records in a table.

    • This updates John Doe's email where student_id equals 1.


    Deleting Data from a Table
    • The DELETE command is used to remove records from a table.

    • This deletes the record where student_id equals 1 from the Students
    table.
    Selecting Data from a Table
    • The SELECT statement is used to query data from a table.

    • SELECT *: Retrieves all columns.


    • SELECT column_name: Retrieves specific columns.
    Deleting a Table

    • To remove an entire table and its data, use the DROP statement.

    • This deletes the Students table completely from the database.


    Altering a Table
    • To modify an existing table (such as adding a new column), use the
    ALTER statement.

    • This adds a new column date_of_birth to the Students table.
