A country is big if it has an area of bigger than 3 million square km or a population of more than 25 million.

Write a SQL solution to output big countries' name, population and area.

For example, according to the above table, we should output:

+--------------+-------------+--------------+
| name         | population  | area         |
+--------------+-------------+--------------+
| Afghanistan  | 25500100    | 652230       |
| Algeria      | 37100000    | 2381741      |
+--------------+-------------+--------------+

Answer：

SELECT name,population,area FROM world where area > 3000000 or population > 25000000

出于效率考虑 最好将以上sql语句改为以下
SELECT name,population,area FROM world where area > 3000000 UNION SELECT name,population,area FROM world where population > 25000000 

思路：刚刚开始刷leetcode的题目，选择了从easy开始，这题就是简单的sql语句，之前了解过如何优化SQL，所以选择了用union代替了or
