✅ Useful SQL Concepts You Should Know 🚀📈

1️⃣ Constraints in SQL:

- PRIMARY KEY – Uniquely identifies each row
- FOREIGN KEY – Links to another table
- UNIQUE – Ensures all values are different
- NOT NULL – Column must have a value
- CHECK – Validates data before insert/update

2️⃣ SQL Views:

Virtual tables based on result of a query
CREATE VIEW top_students AS
SELECT name, marks FROM students WHERE marks > 90;
3️⃣ Indexing:

Improves query performance
CREATE INDEX idx_name ON employees(name);
4️⃣ SQL Transactions:

Ensure data integrity
BEGIN;
UPDATE accounts SET balance = balance - 100 WHERE id = 1;
UPDATE accounts SET balance = balance + 100 WHERE id = 2;
COMMIT;
5️⃣ Triggers:

Automatic actions when events occur
CREATE TRIGGER log_update
AFTER UPDATE ON employees
FOR EACH ROW
INSERT INTO logs(action) VALUES ('Employee updated');
6️⃣ Stored Procedures:

Reusable blocks of SQL logic
CREATE PROCEDURE getTopStudents()
BEGIN
SELECT FROM students WHERE marks > 90;
END;
7️⃣ Common Table Expressions (CTEs):

Temporary named result sets
WITH dept_count AS (
SELECT department, COUNT() AS total FROM employees GROUP BY department
)
SELECT FROM dept_count;
