Python Strings

String Literals

String literals in python are surrounded by either single quotation marks, or double quotation marks.
'hello' is the same as "hello".
Strings can be output to screen using the print function. For example: print("hello").
Like many other popular programming languages, strings in Python are arrays of bytes representing unicode characters. However, Python does not have a character data type, a single character is simply a string with a length of 1. Square brackets can be used to access elements of the string.

Example1

Get the character at position 1:
a = "hello"
print(a[1])

Output

e

Example

Substring. Get the characters from position 2 to position 5:
b = "world"
print(b[2:5])

Output

rld

Example

The len() method returns the length of a string:
a = "Hello, World!"
print(len(a))

Output

13

Introduction of SQL

Introduction of SQL SQL (Structure Query Language)  was initially developed at IBM by Donald D. Chamberlin and Raymond F. Boyce in the early 1970s. This version, initially called SEQUEL (Structured English Query Language), was designed to manipulate and retrieve data stored in IBM's original quasi-relational database management system. Features of SQL SQL is not a case sensitive language. Every commands in SQL should ends with semicolon(;). SQL can also called as sequel (SEQUEL). SQL Sub Language SQL is mainly divided into four sub language Data Definition Language(DDL) Data Manipulation Language(DML) Transaction Control Language(TCL) Data Control Language(DCL) Only for remember You can remember all these command like below; DDL Commands "dr. cat" d-Drop, r-Rename, c-Create, a-Alter, t-Truncate. DML commands "sudi". s-Select, u-Update, d-Delete, i-Insert.

SQL Syntax

SQL Syntax SQL follows some unique set of rules and guidelines called  Syntax . Some basic guidelines related to SQL Syntax are given below; SQL is not case sensitive. Commonly SQL keywords are written in uppercase. You can write SQL statements in one line or in multiple lines. SQL are depends on relational algebra and tuple are relational calculus. SQL statement SQL statements are started with any of the SQL commands/keywords like SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, ALTER, DROP etc. and the statement ends with a semicolon (;). Syntax SELECT * FROM table_name; Why use semicolon after SQL statements ? Semicolon is used to separate SQL statements. It is a standard way to separate SQL statements in a database system in which more than one SQL statements are used in the same call. Some Basic Commands SELECT:  It is used for Retrive data from a database. UPDATE:  It is used for updates data in database. DELETE:  It is used for deletes data from da...

DDL Commands in SQL

DDL Commands in SQL Data Definition Language(DML)  statements are used to define data structures in database. DDL Commands All DDL command are given below; Drop Create Alter Rename Truncate All DML Command I will discuss in detail later.
