About the SQL language#

In the last section, you saw briefly an SQL query in action. There are a few things to take into account when writing these queries.

Case-insensitive#

SQL is case-insensitive, meaning that it doesn’t really matter if we write in uppercase:

SELECT * FROM customers;

lowercase:

select * from customers;

and even:

SeLeCt * fRoM customers;

Statements end with a semicolon#

Remember to end your statements with a semicolon.
