Conditional statements part 1


Sometimes we would like to fetch records that meet a certain condition.

For example

  • fetch all of the records that have the family name "Aothly" 
  • fetch all of the records that the amount is bigger than 5
  • fetch all of the records with the country "Mexico"

To add condition we can use the WHERE keyword

sales

coinamount
AGK13
GOL21
KLA15
AGK18

To fetch all of the records with the coin "AGK" we will write:

SELECT * FROM sales WHERE coin = "AGK"

To fetch all of the records with amount smaller than 20 we will write:

SELECT * FROM sales WHERE amount < 20
