This course covers a wide range of SQL techniques, beyond basic CRUD (Create, Read, Update, and Delete) operations in PostgreSQL. You will learn the specifics of aggregation, transactions, reading and parsing CSV files and inserting data into a database. You’ll also take a look at how PostgreSQL handles and indexes text data.
Specifically, students will do assignments that alter table schemas, create stored procedures, construct advanced queries, explore sorting and grouping query data, and techniques for working with text in databases including regular expressions.
In this first week, you'll be introduced to the course and look at SQL commands for editing columns and tables in a PostgreSQL Database. You'll learn to create stored procedures and also utilize the SELECT DISTINCT command.
