Querying Data

Now that we understand the basic structure, let's delve into querying data with more detail.

#### SELECT Statement:
The SELECT statement retrieves data from one or more tables. You can select specific columns or use * to select all columns.

-- Selecting specific columns
SELECT column1, column2 FROM table_name;

-- Selecting all columns
SELECT * FROM table_name;

#### Filtering Data with WHERE:
The WHERE clause filters rows based on a specified condition.

SELECT column1, column2 FROM table_name WHERE condition;

Example:

SELECT product_name, price FROM products WHERE category = 'Electronics';

This query retrieves the product names and prices for items in the 'Electronics' category.

#### Sorting Data with ORDER BY:
The ORDER BY clause sorts the result set based on one or more columns.

SELECT column1, column2 FROM table_name ORDER BY column1 [ASC|DESC];

Example:

SELECT product_name, price FROM products ORDER BY price DESC;

This query sorts products by price in descending order.

Understanding these fundamentals is crucial for effective data retrieval.
