Introducing the world table of countries
- The example uses a WHERE clause to show the population of ‘France’. Note that strings (pieces of text that are data) should be in ‘single quotes’; Modify it to show the population of Germany
SELECT population
FROM world
WHERE name = ‘Germany’
Scandinavia - Show the name and the population for ‘Sweden’, ‘Norway’ and ‘Denmark’.
SELECT name, population
FROM world
WHERE name IN (‘Sweden’, ‘Norway’, ‘Denmark’);
Just the right size - Which countries are not too small and not too big?BETWEEN allows range checking (range specified is inclusive of boundary values). The example below shows countries with an area of 250,000-300,000 sq. km. Modify it to show the country and the area for countries with an area between 200,000 and 250,000.
SELECT name, area
FROM world
WHERE area BETWEEN 200000 AND 250000

Footnotes
Per Capita GDP
The per capita GDP is the GDP divided by the population. It is a rough measure of the average salary. A rich country is one with a high per capita GDP.
Original source
This data has been collected from http://www.wikidata.org - it may be a little out of date. The latest version can be found at Some changes have been made to the data - the reader should assume that errors and omissions are due to me and not the most excellent wikidata site.
Area
The area is measured in square kilometers.

Scientific Notation
Some implementations of SQL may show large numbers in scientific notation. The number 6.23 E9 means 6.23 x 10 9 which is 6.23 x 1,000,000,000 which is 6,230,000,000
A Million is 10 6 which is 1,000,000
A Billion is 10 9 which is one thousand million which is 1,000,000,000
A Trillion is 10 12 , which is one million million which is 1,000,000,000,000.
- Read the notes about this table. Observe the result of running this SQL command to show the name, continent and population of all countries.
SELECT name, continent, population
FROM world - How to use WHERE to filter records. Show the name for the countries that have a population of at least 200 million. 200 million is 200000000, there are eight zeros.
SELECT name
FROM world
WHERE population >= 200000000 - Give the name and the per capita GDP for those countries with a population of at least 200 million.
SELECT name, gdp/population
FROM world
WHERE population > 200000000 - Show the name and population in millions for the countries of the continent ‘South America’. Divide the population by 1000000 to get population in millions.
SELECT name, population/1000000

SELECT name
FROM world
WHERE name LIKE ‘%United%’ - Two ways to be big: A country is big if it has an area of more than 3 million sq km or it has a population of more than 250 million. Show the countries that are big by area or big by population. Show name, population and area.
SELECT name, population, area
FROM world
WHERE area > 3000000 OR population > 250000000 - Exclusive OR (XOR). Show the countries that are big by area or big by population but not both. Show name, population and area.
SELECT name, population, area
FROM world
WHERE area > 3000000 XOR population > 250000000 - Show the name and population in millions and the GDP in billions for the countries of the continent’South America’. Use the ROUND function to show the values to two decimal places.

select within select
Using SELECT in SELECT
See SELECT FROM SELECT for how to use a derived table.
The result of a SELECT statement may be used as a value in another statement. For example the statement SELECT continent FROM world WHERE name = ‘Brazil’ evaluates to ‘South America’ so we can use this value to obtain a list of all countries in the same continent as ‘Brazil’
1.
List each country in the same continent as ‘Brazil’.
Alias
Some versions of SQL insist that you give the subquery an alias. Simply put AS somename after the closing bracket:
SELECT name FROM world WHERE continent =
(SELECT continent FROM world WHERE name=‘Brazil’) AS brazil_continent
Multiple Results
The subquery may return more than one result - if this happens the query above will fail as you are testing one value against more than one value. It is safer to use IN to cope with this possibility.
The phrase (SELECT continent FROM world WHERE name = ‘Brazil’ OR name=‘Mexico’) will return two values (‘North America’ and ‘South America’). You should use:
SELECT name, continent FROM world
WHERE continent IN
(SELECT continent FROM world WHERE name=‘Brazil’
OR name=‘Mexico’)
2.
List each country and its continent in the same continent as ‘Brazil’ or ‘Mexico’.
Subquery on the SELECT line
If you are certain that only one value will be returned you can use that query on the SELECT line.
3.
Show the population of China as a multiple of the population of the United Kingdom
Operators over a set
These operators are binary - they normally take two parameters:
= equals
greater than
< less than
= greater or equal
<= less or equal
You can use the words ALL or ANY where the right side of the operator might have multiple values.
Show each country that has a population greater than the population of ALL countries in Europe.
Note that we mean greater than every single country in Europe; not the combined population of Europe.
This tutorial looks at how we can use SELECT statements within SELECT statements to perform more complex queries.

SELECT name, continent FROM world x
WHERE population/3 >= ALL(SELECT population FROM world y
WHERE x.continent = y.continent AND
x.name != y.name
AND y.population > 0)
Sum and count
Aggregates
The functions SUM, COUNT, MAX and AVG are “aggregates”, each may be applied to a numeric attribute resulting in a single row being returned by the query. (These functions are even more useful when used with the GROUP BY clause.)
Distinct
By default the result of a SELECT may contain duplicate rows. We can remove these duplicates using the DISTINCT key word.
Order by
ORDER BY permits us to see the result of a SELECT in any particular order. We may indicate ASC or DESC for ascending (smallest first, largest last) or descending order.
1.
The total population and GDP of Europe.
What are the regions?
Show the name and population for each country with a population of more than 100000000. Show countries in descending order of population.
World Country Profile: Aggregate functions
This tutorial is about aggregate functions such as COUNT, SUM and AVG. An aggregate function takes many values and delivers just one value. For example the function SUM would aggregate the values 2, 4 and 5 to deliver the single value 11.
