2. Computations Done on table data
None of the techniques used till now allows display of data from a after some arithmetic has been done it.
Computations may include displaying employee salary from the Employee_Master table along with annual salary.

3. Arithmetic Operators + : Addition - : Subtraction / : Division
* : Multiplication
** : Exponentiation
() : Enclosed Operation

4. Logical Operators The AND Operator :
Select * from persons where name=‘’ and address=‘’;
The OR Operator :
Select * from persons where name=‘’ or address=‘’;

5. Combining AND and OR Operator
EX :
Select * from persons where (name=‘’ and address=‘’) OR (name=‘’ and address=‘’);

6. The NOT operator
Ex:
Select * from persons where NOT ( name=‘a’ OR name=‘b’);
The oracle engine will not display rows from the persons table where the value of the field NAME is either a or b.

7. Range Searching
In order to select data that is within a range of values the BETWEEN operator is use.
The lower value must be coded first.
The values in between the range must be linked with the keyword AND.
Data types can not be mixed.

8. Example
Select * from persons where TO_CHAR(DOB,’MM’) BETWEEN 01 AND 03;
Display persons birth date between month 1 and 4
Select * from persons where To_CHAR(DOB,’MM) NOT BETWEEN 01 AND 04;
Not Display persons Birth Date between 01 and 04

9. Pattern Matchning The use of LIKE Predicate
The LIKE predicate allows comparison of one string value to another string value.
For Character Data Types :
% : Allow to match any string of any length
_ : Allow to match on a single character.

10. Example Select name from persons where name LIKE ‘a%’; Output : Name
Abc
Aaa
Select name from persons where name LIKE ‘_a%’;
Bac
aaa

11. Alias (another name of attribute)
Rename the default output column names with an alias, when requried
Syntax
SELECT <COLUMNNAME><ALIASNAME>, <COLUMNNAME><ALIASNAME> FROM <TABLENAME>;
Example
SELECT NAME “FIRSTNAME” FROM PERSONS;
Output
FIRSTNAME
abc

12. The IN and NOT IN predicates
The arithmetic operator(=) compares a single value to another single value.
Compared to a list of values then the IN predicate is used.
The IN predicate helps reduce the need to use multiple OR conditions.
Example:
List the customer details of the customers named CHINTAN, SANJAY AND VISHAL

13. SOLUTION
SELECT FNAME,LNAME, DOB “BIRTHDATE” FROM PERSONS WHERE FNAME IN (‘CHINTAN’,’SANJAY’,’VISHAL’);
FNAME
LANME
BIRTHDATE
CHINTAN
SHAH
29-APR-90
SANJAY
PATEL
12-JUN-92
VISHAL
22-OCT-90

14. NOT IN The NOT IN predicate is the opposite of the IN predicate.
This will select all the rows where values do not match the values in the list.
Example:-
List the customer details of the customer other than CHINTAN,SANJAY AND VISHAL

15. SOLUTION
SELECT FNAME,LNAME,DOB “BIRTHDATE” FROM PERSONS WHERE FNAME NOT IN(‘CHINTAN’,’SANJAY’,’VISHAL’);
OUTPUT
FNAME
LANME
BIRTHDATE
NITIN
PANDYA
29-APR-90
HETAL
SHAH
12-JUN-92
KHUSHBU
GANDHI
22-OCT-90
MUKESH
GANGDIA
18-NOV-70

16. ORACLE FUNCTION
Oracle functions serve the purpose of manipulating data items and returning a result.
Function are also capable of accepting user- supplied variables or constants and operation on them.
Such variables or constants are called an arguments.
Any number of arguments (or no arguments) can be passed to a function.

17. Assume table structure with data

53. To_char
The TO_CHAR function facilitates the retrieval of data in a format different from the default format.
It can also extract a part of the date, i.e. the date, month or year from the date value and use it for sorting or grouping of data according to date, month and year.

54. Syntax TO_CHAR(<date value> [,<fmt>])
where date value stands for the date and fmt is the specified format in which date is to be displayed.

55. PROBLEM

56. TO_DATE TO_DATE converts a char value into a date value.
It allows a user to insert data into a date column in any required format, by specifying the character value of the date to be inserted and its format

57. syntax TO_DATE(<char value> [,<fmt>])
Where char value stands for the value to be inserted in the date column, and fmt is date format in which the ‘char value’ is specified
