Practices for Lesson 1: Introduction

Chapter 1 - Page 1
Practice Overview
In this practice, you start SQL Developer, create a new database connection, and browse your
HR tables. You also set some SQL Developer preferences.
In some of the practices, there may be exercises that are prefaced with the phrases If you have
time or If you want an extra challenge. Work on these exercises only if you have completed all
other exercises within the allocated time, and would like an additional challenge to your skills.
Perform the practices slowly and precisely. You can experiment with saving and running
command files. If you have any questions at any time, ask your instructor.
Notes
All written practices use Oracle SQL Developer as the development environment.
Although it is recommended that you use Oracle SQL Developer, you can also use
SQL*Plus that is available in this course.
For any query, the sequence of rows retrieved from the database may differ from

Enter your SQL statements in a SQL Worksheet. To save a script in SQL Developer,
make sure that the required SQL Worksheet is active, and then from the File menu,
select Save As to save your SQL statement as a lab_<lessonno>_<stepno>.sql
script. When you modify an existing script, make sure that you use Save As to save it
with a different file name.
To run the query, click the Execute Statement icon in the SQL Worksheet. Alternatively,
you can press F9. For DML and DDL statements, use the Run Script icon or press F5.
After you have executed the query, make sure that you do not enter your next query in
the same worksheet. Open a new worksheet.

Solution 3-1: Restricting and Sorting Data
The HR department needs your assistance in creating some queries.

1. Because of budget issues, the HR department needs a report that displays the last name
and salary of employees earning more than $12,000. Save your SQL statement as a file
named lab_03_01.sql. Run your query.

SELECT last_name, salary
FROM employees
WHERE salary > 12000;
2. Open a new SQL Worksheet. Create a report that displays the last name and department
number for employee number 176.
SELECT last_name, department_id
FROM employees
WHERE employee_id = 176;

the user for a manager ID, and generates the employee ID, last name, salary, and
department for that managers employees. The HR department wants the ability to sort the
report on a selected column. You can test the data with the following values:
manager _id = 103, sorted by last_name
manager_id = 201, sorted by salary
manager_id = 124, sorted by employee_id

SELECT employee_id, last_name, salary, department_id

Practice 4-1: Using Single-Row Functions to Customize Output

Overview
This practice provides a variety of exercises using the different functions that are available for
character, number, and date data types. Remember that for nested functions, the results are
evaluated from the innermost function to the outermost function.
Tasks
1. Write a query to display the system date. Label the column Date.
Note: If your database is remotely located in a different time zone, the output will be the
date for the operating system on which the database resides.
2. The HR department needs a report to display the employee number, last name, salary, and
salary increased by 15.5% (expressed as a whole number) for each employee. Label the
column New Salary. Save your SQL statement in a file named lab_04_02.sql.

b. Rewrite the query so that the user is prompted to enter the letter that the last name
starts with. For example, if the user enters H (capitalized) when prompted for a letter,
the output should show all employees whose last name starts with the letter H.
c. Modify the query such that the case of the letter that is entered does not affect the
output. The entered letter must be capitalized before being processed by the SELECT

Practice 8-1: Using Subqueries to Solve Queries

Overview
In this practice, you write complex queries using nested SELECT statements.
For practice questions, you may want to create the inner query first. Make sure that it runs and
produces the data that you anticipate before you code the outer query.
Tasks
1. The HR department needs a query that prompts the user for an employees last name. The
query then displays the last name and hire date of any employee in the same department
as the employee whose name the user supplies (excluding that employee). For example, if
the user enters Zlotkey, find all employees who work with Zlotkey (excluding Zlotkey).

Last names and department IDs of all employees from the EMPLOYEES table,
regardless of whether or not they belong to a department
Department IDs and department names of all departments from the DEPARTMENTS
table, regardless of whether or not they have employees working in them
Write a compound query to accomplish this report.

Practice 10-1: Managing Tables by Using DML Statements

Overview
The HR department wants you to create SQL statements to insert, update, and delete employee
data. As a prototype, you use the MY_EMPLOYEE table before giving the statements to the HR
department.
Notes
For all the DML statements, use the Run Script icon (or press F5) to execute the query.
Thus, you get to see the feedback messages on the Script Output tabbed page. For
SELECT queries, continue to use the Execute Statement icon or press F9 to get the
formatted output on the Results tabbed page.
Execute cleanup_10.sql script from /home/oracle/labs/sql1/code_ex
/cleanup_scripts/ before performing the following tasks.

Practice 11-1: Introduction to Data Definition Language

Overview
In this practice, you create new tables by using the CREATE TABLE statement. Confirm that the
new table was added to the database. You also learn to set the status of a table as READ ONLY,
and then revert to READ/WRITE. You use the ALTER TABLE command to modify table columns.
Notes
For all the DDL and DML statements, click the Run Script icon (or press F5) to execute
the query in SQL Developer. Thus, you get to see the feedback messages on the Script
Output tabbed page. For SELECT queries, continue to click the Execute Statement icon
or press F9 to get the formatted output on the Results tabbed page.

Solution 1-1: Additional Practice
Overview
Solutions to Additional Practice 1-1 are given as follows.
Tasks
1. The HR department needs to find data for all the clerks who were hired after 1997.
SELECT *
FROM employees
WHERE job_id = 'ST_CLERK'
AND hire_date > '31-DEC-1997';
2. The HR department needs a report of employees who earn a commission. Show the last
name, job, salary, and commission of these employees. Sort the data by salary in
descending order. a

4. Create a report of employees and the duration of their employment. Show the last names of
all employees, together with the number of years and the number of completed months that
they have been employed. Order the report by the duration of their employment. The
employee who has been employed the longest should appear at the top of the list.
SELECT last_name,
TRUNC(MONTHS_BETWEEN(SYSDATE, hire_date) / 12) YEARS,
TRUNC(MOD(MONTHS_BETWEEN(SYSDATE, hire_date), 12))
MONTHS
FROM employees
ORDER BY years DESC, MONTHS desc;

5. Show those employees who have a last name that starts with the letters J, K, L, or M.
SELECT last_name
FROM employees
WHERE SUBSTR(last_name, 1,1) IN ('J', 'K', 'L', 'M');
6. Create a report that displays all employees, and indicate with the words Yes or No whether
they receive a commission. Use the DECODE expression in your query.
SELECT last_name, salary,
decode(commission_pct, NULL, 'No', 'Yes') commission
FROM employees;
These exercises can be used for extra practice after you have discussed the following
topics: basic SQL SELECT statement, basic SQL Developer commands, SQL functions,
joins, and group functions.

Case Study: Online Book Store
Overview
In this case study, you build a set of database tables for an online book store (E-Commerce
Shopping Cart). After you create the tables, you insert, update, and delete records in the book
store database and generate a report. The database contains only the essential tables.
The following is a diagram of the table and columns for the online book store application:

All the three SQL scripts are present in the /home/oracle/labs/sql1/labs folder.
If you use the Online_Book_Store_Create_Table.sql script to build the tables,
start with step 2.
If you use the Online_Book_Store_Drop_Tables.sql script to remove the tables,
start with step 1.
If you use the Online_Book_Store_Populate.sql script to build and populate the
tables, start with step 6.

Practice 1-2
