Question 8
1 / 1 pts
Read all possible answers, select the best answer.
What would this SQL command do?
select * from fruit where fruitID=2;

Generate an Error

Correct!

Would output the row that has fruitID equal to 2 or an empty set if fruitID = 2 doesn't
exist in table

Output the fruitID=2 row

would output all rows with fruitID of 2

Output the contents of fruit table

none of the above

Output the three Apple fields

fruitID is a primary key,
each record of the table must have a unique primary key.
Therefore, it will only output one row matching the fruitID=2;
If the table:fruit doesn't have a row with fruitID=2, it will output the empty set.

Question 10
0.33 / 1 pts
Clicking a table:fruit in the left navbar of PHPMyAdmin is equivalent to which SQL
query.

select * from fruit where fruitID=1

Correct Answer

select * from fruit;

select * from fruit where fruitID<8

select * from Fruit;

Correct Answer

Select * from fruit;

Correct!

SELECT * From fruit;

When you select a table name in the left navBar,
it automatically excecutes the query
select * from tableReferenceName;
note keywords select and from are case insensitive
the table name and usernames are case sensitive.
So
select * from Fruit;
will not occur Fruit is not fruit. PHPMyAdmin does add the accents `fruit`, which are
used to delimit table names. At this stage they are optional, when we add views and
variables, they become required.

Consistency Notes...
fruit tables are all lowercase
premiere tables are all uppercase
note the correct word is lowercase, when a new word is introduced such as email it is
typical to use a hypen e-mail, we also sometimes initially capitalize it,
(i.e., Web E-Mail) but over time it becomes accepted and the word is just web or email.
When we introduction tables with multiple words, we will be using lower camel case,
in lower camel case the first word is lowercase letters, first letter or 2nd word is
uppercase.
e.g., orderLine, or iPhone

Correct!
#
Correct Answers
#

(?i)hash(tag| character)

(?i)pound\s+sign

before you enter a query, for submission.
You should always have
# comment in the line above each query
The comment should identify the query number and also what the query is suppose to
do, you can lose points by not properly documenting your code.
You can use both # and -- on the same line as a query. For Example,
select * from fruit # display all fields for table fruit where price < 1.0; #for price less that
1.0
however in SQL is best not to intermingle comments and code.

Table A has the columns: price, aID (where aID is primary key of table A)
Table B has three columns: aID (Foreign Key), bID (pirmary key) and quantity.
Which query will display the price, and quantity for all items whose quantity is greater
than 0.
During table creation, all columns are set to not null. A price of null on output is okay.

select price, quantity from A, B where A.aID = b.aID and quantity > 0;
You Answered

select price, quantity from A, B where A.aID = b.aID or quantity > 0;

select price, quantity from A left join B on A.aID = b.aID
where quantity > 0;

Correct Answer

select price, quantity from A right join B on A.aID = b.aID
where quantity > 0;

select price, quantity from A, B where quantity > 0;
Since you are interested in quantity greater than 0 and price,
A left join B will not work, you will not get items in B but not in A
You need to use table 2, and look for quantity > 0

What is wrong with this query:

inventory.fruitID group by inventory.fruitID;

missing where clause

Correct Answer

no aggregate present

missing order by clause

Correct!

ambiguous field in select

You Answered

missing where clause

Correct!

wrong group by field

select fruitID, price, name, quantity from fruit left join inventory on fruit.fruitID = inventory.fruitID group by
inventory.fruitID;

select fruitID is ambiguous needs to be fruit.fruitID, note inventory.fruitID will come out
as null for three values
you have group by but no aggregate function like sum( quantity )
you need to group by fruit.fruitID not inventory.fruitID, inventory.fruitID will group by 1,
3 and null only.

with left join we use on to signify the joining where clause
whole idea of a join, is to line up missing items, so its understood that inventory may not
have all fruitIDs or table:fruit
where, limit and order by clause are always optional
