Examples
Return all columns:
SELECT * FROM employee;
Rename a column:

Cast a column's data as a different data type:
SELECT CAST(mobile AS VARCHAR) AS Str_Mobile FROM customer;
Search data:
SELECT * FROM customer WHERE company_name = 'lyftrondata';
Return the number of items matching the query criteria:
SELECT COUNT(*) AS TotolRows FROM customer;
Return the number of unique items matching the query criteria:
SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT name) FROM customer;
Return the unique items matching the query criteria:
SELECT DISTINCT name FROM customer;
Summarize data:
SELECT priority, MAX(subscriptions) FROM customer GROUP BY subscriptions;
Retrieve data from multiple tables.
SELECT c.name, a.street FROM customer c INNER JOIN address a ON c.customer_id = a.customer_id
Sort a result set in ascending order:
SELECT customer_id, subscriptions FROM customer ORDER BY subscriptions ASC
Restrict a result set to the specified number of rows:
SELECT customer_id, subscriptions FROM customer LIMIT 10
Parameterize a query to pass in inputs at execution time. This enables you to create prepared statements and mitigate SQL injection attacks.
SELECT * FROM incident WHERE category = @param
13. Restrict a result set to the specified number of pages
SELECT * FROM sales_invoice lyftstartpage 1 lyftendpage 10
