SQL Pocket Guide 2nd Edition
SQL is the language of databases. It's used to create and
maintain database objects, place data into those objects,
query the data, modify the data, and, finally, delete data
that is no longer needed. Databases lie at the heart of
many, if not most business applications. Chances are very
good that if you're involved with
software development,
you're using SQL to some degree. And if you're using SQL,
you should own a good reference or two.
Now available in an updated second edition, our very popular
SQL Pocket Guide is a major help to programmers, database
administrators, and everyone who uses SQL in their
day-to-day work. The SQL Pocket Guide is a concise reference
to frequently used SQL statements and commonly used SQL
functions. Not just an endless collection of syntax
diagrams, this portable guide addresses the language's
complexity head on and leads by example. The information in
this edition has been updated to reflect the latest versions
of the most commonly used SQL variants including:
Oracle Database 10g, Release 2 (including
the free Oracle Database 10g Express Edition (XE))
Microsoft SQL Server 2005
MySQL 5
IBM DB2 8.2
PostreSQL 8.1 database
