To retrieve data from an Oracle database, you can use the SQL SELECT statement.

Here's an example of
a basic SELECT query:

sqlCopy code

SELECT column1, column2, ... FROM table_name WHERE condition;

Here's a breakdown of the different parts of the query:

 SELECT: This keyword specifies the columns you want to retrieve from the table.

 column1, column2, ...: Specify the columns you want to select. You can use * to select all
columns.

 FROM: This keyword specifies the table from which you want to retrieve the data.

 table_name: Replace this with the name of the table you want to query.

 WHERE: This keyword is optional and is used to specify conditions for filtering the data.

 condition: Replace this with the specific condition(s) you want to apply to filter the data.

Here's an example that selects all columns from a table called "employees" where the "salary" column is
greater than 5000:

sqlCopy code

SELECT * FROM employees WHERE salary > 5000;

Remember to replace "employees" with the actual name of your table and adjust the condition based
on your requirements.
