Experiment Name: - Introduction of Oracle & Basic SQL Statements

Aim: - Performing practical by using Basic SQL Statements.

Resource Required: - Oracle 9i - iSQLplus

Theory: -

• INTRODUCTION TO ORACLE9I:
SQL consists of two models

- Introduction to Oracle9i: SQL Basics

- Oracle9i: Advanced SQL

• Oracle9i Features:
 There are two products, Oracle9i Application server (Oracle9iAS – services for all
different server applications) & Oracle9i Database (stores all data). That provide a complete
and simple infrastructure for Internet applications.

• System Development Life Cycle:

- develop database by using system development life cycle
- this is top-down, systematic approach to database development
1. Strategy and Analysis:

- Study and analyze the business requirements.

- Build models of the system.

2. Design:

- Design database based on the model development in the strategy and analysis phase.

3. Build and document

- Build the prototype system, Create table and develop user

documentation.

4. Transition
 - Refine the prototype & make any modification required.

5. Production

- Roll out the system to the users.

• Main types of Database (DBMS):

1. Hierarchical
2. Network
3. Relational
4. Object relational
Relational Database Concept:

- It’s basis for the relational database management system (RDBMS).

- The relational model consists of the following:
- Collection of objects or relations

- Set of operators to act on the relations

- Data integrity for accuracy and consistency.

- A relational database is a collection of relations or two-dimensional tables.

That is a relational database uses relations or two-dimensional tables to

store Information.
• Entity Relationship Model:
In a relational database data is divided into entities. An entity relationship (ER) model is
an illustration of various entities.

It is derived from business specification & built during the analysis phase of the system
development life cycle.

Key Components:

 Entity: A thing of specificance about which information needs to be known. E.g.

Employee.
 Attribute: Something that describes an entity. E.g. for employee entity, the
attributes would be the employee name, number, job title & so on.
 Relationship: A named association between entities.
 Unique Identifiers (UID): Any combination of attributes or relationship that
serves to distinguish occurrences of an entity.
  Relational Database Properties:
- Can be accessed and modified by executing structured query language (SQL)
statements
- Contains a collection of tables with no physical pointers
- Uses a set of operators.

• SQL STATEMENTS:

Basic SELECT Statements:

• - SQL statements aren’t case sensitive.
• - SQL statements can be on one or more lines.
• - Keywords can’t be abbreviated across lines.
• - Clauses are usually placed on separate lines.
• - Indents are used to enhance readability.
SELECT – Retrieves data from the database.

Syntax:-
SELECT *| {[DISTINCT] column | expression [alias] …}

FROM table;

- SELECT identifies what columns

- FROM identifies which table
Example: -

1) SELECT *

FROM departments;
 DEPT_ID DEPT_NAME MANAGER_ID LOCATION_ID

10 Administration 200 1700

20 Shipping 201 1800

50 IT 103 1400

Selecting all columns of the table.

2) SELECT dept_id, location_id

FROM departments;

DEPT-ID LOCATION_ID

10 1700

20 1400

Selecting specific columns.

3) Arithmetic Operators & Parentheses

SELECT last_name, salary, 12*(salary+100)

FROM employees;

LAST_NAME SALARY 12*(SALARY+100)

King 24000 269200

Kochhar 17000 205200

Fay 13000 73200

4) Defining column aliases

SELECT last_name AS name, salary*12 as anuual_salary

FROM employees;

NAME ANNUAL_SALARY

King 228800

Kochhar 204000
De Haan 204000

5) Using Concatenation Operator

SELECT last_name || job_id AS “Employees”

FROM employees;

Employees

KingAD_PRES

KochharAD_VP

De HaanAD_VP

HunoldIT_PROG

6) Eliminating Duplicate Rows

SELECT DISTINCT dept_id

FROM employees;

DEPT_ID

10

20

30

7) Displaying Table Structure

DESCRIBE employees

Name Null? Type

EMPLOYEE_ID NOT NULL NUMBER(6)

FIRST_NAME VARCHAR(20)

LAST_NAME NOT NULL VARCHAR(25)

EMAIL NOT NULL VARCHAR(25)

PHONE_NUMBER VARCHAR(20)

HIRE_DATE NOT NULL DATE

Conclusion:

The Oracle9i Server is the database for Internet computing & based on the object
relational database management system.

You should have learned how to write & execute SELECT statements.

Experiment no: - 2
Experiment Name: - Ret rival Commands-I

Aim: - Performing practical by using restricting, sorting conditions and single-row functions.

Resource required: - Oracle 9i - iSQLplus

Theory: -

• RESTRICTING AND SORTING DATA:

Limiting the Rows Selected:

Syntax:-

SELECT *| {[DISTINCT] column / expression [alias],….}

FROM table

[WHERE condition(s)];

-Restrict the rows returned by using the WHERE clause

Example:

SELECT employee_id, last_name, job_id, department_id

FROM employees

WHERE depertment_id = 90;

EMPLOYEE_ID LAST_NAME JOB_ID DEPARTMENT_ID

100 King AD_PRES 90

101 Kochhar AD_VP 90

102 De Haan AD_VP 90

FROM employees

WHERE salary<= 3000;

LAST_NAME SALARY

2) BETWEEN Condition: display row based on a range of values

SELECT last_name, salary

FROM employees

WHERE salary BETWEEN 2500 AND 3500;

LAST_NAME SALARY

3) IN Condition: test for values in a list
