一:题目
There is a table World
+-----------------+------------+------------+--------------+---------------+ | name | continent | area | population | gdp | +-----------------+------------+------------+--------------+---------------+ | Afghanistan | Asia | 652230 | 25500100 | 20343000 | | Albania | Europe | 28748 | 2831741 | 12960000 | | Algeria | Africa | 2381741 | 37100000 | 188681000 | | Andorra | Europe | 468 | 78115 | 3712000 | | Angola | Africa | 1246700 | 20609294 | 100990000 | +-----------------+------------+------------+--------------+---------------+
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 | +--------------+-------------+--------------+
二:题意解读
大意就是从表格中选出符合条件的国家,也就是领土大于3 million square km或者人口大于25 million。
三:基本思路
这是数据库方面的题目,第一步可以设定查询条件,按照题目意思是二选一的条件,那么该如何作答就显而易见了。
四:代码
SELECT name, area, population
FROM World
WHERE World.area > 3000000
OR World.population > 25000000;
